Marc I'd be happy with a few top, side, front, back, bottom photos taken flat-on, and a 3/4-front and 3/4-rear photo. If there is a round flat object of a known size (eg. a coin) placed against each surface before taking the picture, then I can apply some basic photogrammetry techniques and/or affine transformations to get enough information. I usually do this to extract and generate plan/elevation/front views and marking details of WW2 vehicles from photos, have also done for a 360/40 CPU and operators table display (drawings are done but need dimensioning - need someone to confirm measurements someday). So, basically some photos would be fine, if that's ok. No hurry - it's just an idle thought project I've had for a while, I have (too) many other things to work on :) Steve.
