About this 3D model

This is for a prototype microFluidic digital mixer. For details about how these devices operate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_microfluidics http://microfluidics.ee.duke.edu/ http://www.liquid-logic.com/technology.html No clue if this is going to work yet. ABS is hydrophillic, this might change the implementation or require a catalyst to convert to hydrophobic. The included .scad let's you specify different PCB and dielectric thicknesses. Ideas for bottom electrode: PCB Unicorn-drawn on holder with conductive pen Ideas for dielectric: Acrylic sheet PCB printed dielectric (thickness will be an issue here) Ideas for top electrode: Al foil Sn foil un-etched PCB Unicorn-drawn on spacer with conductive pen
