Makerbot Digitizer Back Name Plate

So I have the digitizer set up in my classroom. It looks awesome on the shelf when it is facing forward but there are two problems.

1. The lasers shoot out toward the classroom and, possibly, at my students as they walk around the room.

2. The overhead lighting causes horrible artifacts in scanning and makes it tough to calibrate the turntable/lasers.

My solution is to turn the scanner around toward the wall with a black piece of foam board. This, in turn, makes scans much better/safer
