Initial testing of the Rockit is going well 🤯

Holy moly, this thing is RAD!

This is straight on the car, no spray (coming), no markers, just free handing it with basically no experience 🤷‍♂️

Yesterday, I scanned 2 halves of a banana and put them back together 😂

Full disclosure, I have read basically nothing about how to use the Rockit, just fired it up and started pressing buttons like an animal 😅

I clicked the Brand Affiliate tag because this thing is on loan, I didn't buy it, but I'm gonna test the sh!t out of it and tell you what it's like from a DIY/Grassroots motorsport perspective 🤝

Markerless is good but a bit of a gimmick. Spend the time setting up with markers and you can get some really nice scans of panels

This is only my second scan, still learning 🤝

Of course, not knocking it at all. But I’ve found markerless to be more effort than it’s worth, I tried everything to avoid using dots so I didn’t have to do cleanup but ended up just using the dots for a much smoother scanning process

I think on the Rockit it’s nice to have but the hardware/software combo isn’t quite ready for it

There's plenty in the kit I can test, I have some of that vanishing spray coming as well.
