About Menara Telekom
Telekom Tower, known in Malay as Menara Telekom and also as TM Tower, is a 55-story supertall skyscraper that stands 310 m high in the Lembah Pantai area of western Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Its form represents a sprouting "bamboo shoot". Among twisted buildings it ranks fourth tallest in the world, and among Malaysian buildings fifth tallest, and it is regarded as the world's first twisted skyscraper. Hijjas Kasturi Associates designed it, and Daewoo Construction built it between 1998 and 2001.
Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia's fourth Prime Minister, officially opened the building on February 11, 2003. Its hanging gardens climb the structure, which cost over $160 million. The 22 open sky gardens, one every three floors, are a distinctive feature. The windows, orientation and air conditioning system were designed to encourage energy saving. Express double-deck elevators serve the office floors, which are divided into north and south wings.
The complex also includes a theater seating 2,500, a sports facility and a large prayer hall, called a surau. The tower resembles the Bitexco Financial Tower in Ho Chi Minh City, finished in 2010, and the Telecommunications Tower in Montevideo, finished in 2002. Close by is Kerinchi Pylon, Southeast Asia's tallest electricity pylon.

- Pointed blade at the top
- A thin pointed blade rises above the round platform at the crown. Print slowly with good cooling, and use Print friendly to adapt the tip to the print scale.
- Tall twisting shaft
- The shaft is tall and slender with fine rows of windows. Layers of 0.12–0.16 mm keep the vertical lines crisp, and a larger print size keeps the window rows distinct.
- One piece with the ground
- Menara Telekom 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. Menara Telekom 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.

Common questions
Is there a Menara Telekom STL I can download?
Mini Skyline builds the file for you in your browser and exports 3MF, which every major slicer opens. If you need an STL, open the 3MF in your slicer and export it from there.
How big can I print it?
Any print size from 40 mm across. Menara Telekom grows with the print: about 84 mm tall on the default 160 mm print. For a model larger than your printer bed, Project Mode splits the area into tiles.
Is it free?
