Ok, just kidding.  I scanned my wheel and printed it in 3D.  I did this really quickly, so the details are very poor.  Now that I know it can work, I will do it again at higher detail levels.  It was a fun little project though.  I printed it blue and use a marker for the black. Unfortunately, the ink bleeds down the print lines pretty easily.  Next time I'll be ready for that.

 I took 99 photos with my iPhone from different angles. I then took that into AutoCAD Remake and it stitched them for me. The software allows 250 photos, so the next time I do it, I will use my limit. I also had horrible lighting when I did it, so I'll get the lighting better. I'm sure I can get a really good result if I try, this was just to see if it actually would do it.

Awesome! You could sell those for big key chains.

Thanks Rehab1!

Once I have a clean version, I think I might do just that.  This one is quite rough and a little too big for a key chain at 4" tall.  But when I have it cleaned up and ready, I can make any size up to 16" tall and probably down to about 1" tall and still hold details..

I use to make miniature pilot license key chains in another life. I believe if you could make a clean copy of the wheel, say 1 1/2" in diameter, with a slot or hole for the chain you could possibly sell them.

Your project would be easy. My key chains were customized and involved a lot of engraving. Each pilot license was unique with the pilot''s name, birth date, date of license issuance, aircraft rating along with administrator's forged signature. :)

It just so happens I have 10,000 non-plated key chains in my attic.:facepalm:
