We created our 3D models using OpenScad and used Simplify3D as our slicer to convert .stl files exported from OpenScad into .gcode files that are readable by 3D printers. Our 3D printer was a MakeIt Pro-M The core of our design consists of five main components:Our switch and antenna were printed using Electrifi's conductive copper filament Download OpenSCAD models here: Printed Wi-Fi CAD Models We used magnetic iron PLA from ProtoPasta to print the ferromagnetic segments of our model.Here are the links to the thingiverse STLs that were sliced up.Here is an example of the split up STLs that are imported into Simplify3D. NetFabb Basic was used to slice up the .stl file into different sectors. Simplify3D was used to assign each sector with a different material (plastic or ferromagnetic).
