Parts needed to make a dipole antenna inspired by https://www.printables.com/model/235528-dipole-antenna. I have used 10 mm diameter copper pipe and cut to length using SWR meter (NanoVNA) according to the wanted frequency. From the wall mount to the antenna I have used a PVC pipe of 15 mm (white pipe in the pictures). To the base I have used a SMA connector from AliExpress. Note that you need to print 2x of the dipole_10mm_holder.stl.

To connect the copper pipes to the SMA connector, I first drilled a hole in the copper pipes and soldered a small copper wire. Then I inserted the copper pipes into the base (dipole_10mm.stl) and soldered it to the SMA connector. Can be a bit fiddly.
