3d printed mtg card scanner Scanstand for Standard Size Unsleeved Cards

Product features

• Scanstand is the number one solution and ideal aid for scanning, cataloging, and price checking your trading card collection quickly and efficiently.
• Our nested design allows for convenient storage and travel. Complete setup or teardown in seconds! Simply slide out the card chute from the phone holder, rotate and interlock the two parts, then place your smartphone atop and orient your camera as needed.
• A removable door allows you to easily pull rare cards from the pile while scanning without hassle. The tray where cards land features a tilted bed which puts the cards slightly off level, allowing them to fall and stack evenly while maintaining a sufficient viewing angle for your camera. Receptacle accommodates approximately 130 unsleeved standard size cards (2.5 x 3.5" or 64 x 89mm).
• Use with ManaBox, TCGplayer, and other card scanning phone apps. Phone mount is fixed at an ideal height for scanning, made wide enough for stability and universal compatibility across makes & models.
• Made in the USA! Professionally 3D printed in Las Vegas, NV by experts in the trade using PLA, an eco-friendly plastic. Colors may slightly vary depending on available material. Use in a well lit area with ambient or indirect light for best results.

Scanstand is an all-in-one portable solution for TCG scanning. Quickly and efficiently scan, catalog and price check cards at home or on the go using ManaBox, TCGplayer or similar apps (not included; eligible smartphone with compatible software required for use). Make tracking your sets and decks a more enjoyable experience.

To start, remove the chute by pushing it out of the holder. Rotate the frame 90 degrees then re-insert the box perpendicular to the frame and interlock them in the designated position. An angled notch at the bottom tells how to orient the two parts. Place your phone atop and adjust as needed based on the position of its camera. It is best to have your scanner app open during this process and use the associated viewfinder as a guide.

Now you're ready to roll! Start throwing cards in with a flick of the wrist. If cards get stuck or don't travel the whole way, static buildup may be the culprit. Reduce cling by wiping down the ramp with a lightly damp cloth—allow to dry before use. If the problem persists you may need to use a tad more muscle or work on your aim. Alternatively, if it sounds loud every time a card hits against the plastic you may be using unnecessary force and potentially causing damage to the edges of your cards. Start light and dial up your strength as needed until cards fall into the receptacle with ease.

For best results use in a well lit area with ambient or indirect light. Optimal conditions may differ based on your phone's camera and the selected app's recognition software. If trouble arises while scanning holographic, foil or otherwise highly reflective cards we recommend a simple diffuser (e.g. a sheet of paper) to block excess light.

3D printed in the United States using an eco-friendly plastic, your purchase will help support our small business and contributes to a greener domestic manufacturing on demand model that works to prevent overproduction and eliminate commercial waste.
