    Question What is your beam height?

    Hi Guys!

    I am thinking about making some scan glass effects and I need a favor from all of you.

    What is your beam height? I need to know what height you have just before your scanners from the base plate.

    Thanks,

    chad

    I'm using the DT40's flat on the base plate, I think it's 20mm

    Scanpro 20's are about 35mm from the baseplate IIRC

    2 inch beam height is what I'm building for scan through effects, allowing for inline beam table support as well.

    Thanks guys, I am starting to get a picture going.

    I have some ideas going so it can work at any height.

    I guess the next thing i should ask is would people be interested in some scan glass stuff?

    Things like dg, lumia, some specials?
