About Squaw Peak Inn

The historic Squaw Peak Inn sits at 4425 E. Horseshoe Road, on Piestewa Peak Mountain's eastern end; the mountain used to be called Squaw Peak Mountain. The inn has lodged various celebrities, and the National Register of Historic Places listed it in 1995.

The first building on the property went up in 1929, when William Eugene D'Allemund built a house of frame and stucco with two bedrooms and one bathroom, a flat roof with parapet and a large fireplace of mortared native stone. The Stopfords, William A. and Emily, paid $25.00 an acre in 1937 for a parcel of 800 acres (320 ha) close to the mountain's east end. They built a home in the center of it, using adobe bricks, with local Native Americans among the workers. By 1943 it was a guest ranch, the Squaw Peak Ranch. It had no telephones or electricity, and kerosene lanterns lit the rooms.

Frank Lloyd Wright, a friend of Stopford, often brought architecture students to the ranch to show them an example of fitting architecture for the Southwest. Davidson and Jane Jenks bought the ranch in 1946, and it was renamed Squaw Peak Inn that year. Local news of the time named Clark Gable, Robert Taylor and Mamie Eisenhower among its guests. Later the property fell into disrepair, and just two of the original houses were left. In 1980 William and Ann Epley bought just under two acres with those two buildings and restored them.

Low, flat-roofed wings
The inn is a cluster of low wings with flat roofs and parapet edges, so the model is small. A larger print keeps the roof edges and step changes clear.
Tiny doors and windows
Small windows and doors dot the walls. Print friendly adapts them to the print scale; Full detail keeps them on larger prints, and a layer height of 0.12–0.16 mm keeps them crisp.
One piece with the ground
Squaw Peak Inn 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. Squaw Peak Inn 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.

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. Squaw Peak Inn grows with the print: about 2 mm tall on the default 160 mm print. For a model larger than your printer bed, Project Mode splits the area into tiles.
