Play-Doh, the popular modeling toy, is conductive, and the team at Inventery recently used this fact to their advantage. They brought together their 3D modeling app, Morphi, with Play-Doh, 3D printing, and the MaKey MaKey electronics kit to see what they could do. They started with a functional video game controller. After modeling the design using Morphi and 3D printing it using their Ultimaker 2 3D printer, they filled the button holes with Play-Doh -- and then used it to play PacMan! Next up was their MaKey-Morphi Band, which used 3D printed shapes to represent instruments. Again using Play-Doh to complete the circuits (and also some conductive tape), the MaKey-Morphi Band plays music. Check out how they did it, as well as videos of both projects in action, in the full article: http://3dprint.com/41045/3d-printed-controller-game/
