Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Compact footprint
The church covers a compact footprint, so a larger print makes the outline easier to read. Use 0.12–0.16 mm layers to keep the wall edges crisp.
- One piece with the ground
Greensted Church is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Greensted Church takes the building color.
- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About Greensted Church
Greensted Church stands in a small Essex village near Chipping Ongar, England. People have called it the world's oldest wooden church and probably Europe's oldest surviving wooden building, though only parts of the original structure remain. Its formal name is St Andrew's Church, Greensted-juxta-Ongar, and it holds Grade I listed status.
The oak walls are usually read as what is left of a palisade church or, loosely, a stave church of the early kind, dated to either the mid-9th century or the mid-11th. Tree-ring dating once put the timbers at 845; a later study moved that to 1053, allowing 10 to 55 years for lost sapwood. A first permanent church here may have followed Cedd's conversion of the East Saxons, which began around 654.
Large split oak trunks form the nave, built in a traditional Anglo-Saxon way, and most of the nave is original. A white weatherboarded tower arrived in the 17th century, the chancel is brick, and Victorian work replaced three dormer windows with six and added decorative brickwork. Services take place every week, and an oak font designed by Hugh Casson was installed in 1987.
