Any updates on adding our own .stl file? I have one on my server but can't figure out how to modify the code to point to that stl.

For loading an scene from server side, you have to load the file with THREE.STLloader module provided in three.js website specifing your static path to the file from server, instead of loading the local file with function:(
var openFile = function (file) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.addEventListener("load", function (ev) {
var buffer = ev.target.result;
var geom = loadStl(buffer);
scene.remove(obj);
obj = new THREE.Mesh(geom, mat);
scene.add(obj);
}, false);
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(file);
};
)

There is an example on three.js website.
