It definitely takes some experimenting ...

I've had some success in getting models of fairly organic pieces out of these, but haven't printed anything yet.  Part of the problem I've had is trying to get hi resolution of large (e.g. 15" x 30") volumes...

On my list of 'when I get around to it', I'm considering getting a Kinect for Windows (not the Xbox one, tis important as Xbox models don't support 'near mode') and trying the "Official" Microsoft Kinect Fusion or ReconstructMe

Both seem to give much better Point Clouds without the hassling around required for MakerScanner (setting up the laser, measuring distances, making sure the top 25 pixels are flat, etc etc) and it isn't hugely more expensive in the scheme of things than a PS3-Eye + Line Laser + 20M's of Filament (to print the mounts/brackets).
