A method of fabricating an electromagnet includes obtaining a first flexible PCB that includes one or more first conductive coiled traces and obtaining a second flexible PCB that includes one or more second conductive coiled traces. The first flexible PCB is bent into a shape having at least one curve or corner. With the first flexible PCB having been bent into the shape, the second flexible PCB is then bent into the shape: the second flexible PCB is positioned adjacent to the first flexible PCB to conform with the first flexible PCB.
