You shouldn't worry that much. Daniel is planning to do an explanation of how to put together this model if you have lots of time and don't have lots of money.Doranwen wrote:Oh boy, I'll be saving up for a year then, lol. Good to know, thanks.
However, how many books were you planning to scan? I read in the Hello thread that you wanted to digitize some of your books to read on the e-reader. I think that in that case you can go with simpler options. Not only David Landin's model (http://www.diybookscanner.org/forum/vie ... =14&t=2914) but also you can try something like this (http://www.diybookscanner.org/forum/vie ... 22&p=17906). If you don't feel like drilling & screwing you can also try with a cardbox scanner. For doing one or two ebooks once in a while it's the best option.
