Here's the layout for doing a pixscan mat photo box using a sheet of Dollar Tree foamcore (20 in x 30 in x 1 cm)  Dotted lines on legs are cut partially so they can fold. Reinforce with duct tape.

The box lets you lay your cell phone on top and take a picture of a mat through the hole in the top.  I use a Pixel 3a, so if you use a different phone, check the height you need to be at to get the mat fully in frame.  This pattern is for 15" .  If you need it taller, you will likely need to use a second foamcore board to make it.     It is ugly, cheap and collapsible.   I'm sure you all could make it a lot prettier, if you are so inclined.   I suggest drawing around your phone once it is in place for a picture to make it simple to position the next time. 

 

How would you like to use a simple path to create the svg pieces to create a vase like the one below

example input file vase4 474x464

 

 

 

  Using Inkscape and a python program, you can create the pieces needed to make a vase or similar "round" (actually polygon-shaped) 3d objects.  Other possibilites would be lampshades, candlesticks, etc.
