>I fix CT scanners for a living. This is pretty darn cool!! When you started out, I was trying to figure out how you were going to make all of that rotate around your “patient.” You simply rotated your “patient” itself. Well done! It's worth noting that this is in fact the approach for most industrial CT scanners, which are perfectly capable of punching through perhaps half an inch of steel in my experience (not a CT tech, just an engineer that has used them - there might be more powerful ones out there). It's usually just a small turntable. Conveniently, the object to be imaged usually doesn't care too much about the radiation when it's made of metal.
