Reflector Design Files

|---|---|---|---|
| Large (4' wide x 4' high x 0.500" thick material)
This is the highest gain version we have designed. A pair can be cut from five 4' x 4' sheets. |

| Large w/weatherproof router box (4' wide x 4' high x 0.500" thick material)
This is an updated version of the large antenna that integrates an acrylic weatherproof box for the router. Older models can be upgraded to this version by replacing piece "a" from sheet 2. |

| Small (16" wide x 2' tall x 0.5" thick material)
The small reflector is currently the most used in FabFi. A pair of these can be cut from one 4' x 4' sheet. | sheet1 | sheet1 | |
| Small w/weatherproof router box(16" wide x 2' tall x 0.5" thick material)
A version of the small reflector modified for an acrylic router enclosure. This version effectively deprecates the one above--even if you're not weatherproofing--unless you're particularly nostalgic. Router box requires a 12x24x.25" sheet of acrylic and is fabbed on the laser cutter. |

| X-Small (15" wide x 18' tall x 0.22" thick material)
The x-small reflector is specifically designed to fit on 24" x 12" sheets that fit in the laser cutter. A pair of these can be cut from four 24" x 12" sheets. | sheet1 sheet2 sheet3 |
