About the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium
The Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium is a sporting complex in Sendagaya, in Shibuya, Tokyo. The original gymnasium staged the gymnastics events of the 1964 Summer Olympics, and the complex later held the table tennis competition of the 2020 Summer Olympics. It was rebuilt between 1986 and 1990 to a futuristic design by Pritzker Prize winner Fumihiko Maki. Kokuritsu Kyogijo Station (Toei Oedo Line) and Sendagaya Station (Chūō-Sōbu Line) are both a one-minute walk away.
The main arena holds 10,000 people, with 6,000 fixed seats and 4,000 temporary ones. The sub-arena has an Olympic-size swimming pool, 50 m by 20 m with eight lanes, and seating for 900 people. It also has a 25 m pool, a weight training room, conference rooms and an outdoor oval track for running.
Events held in the main arena include the 2007 World Figure Skating Championships, the 2011 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships and the 2019 ITTF Team World Cup. In 1990 it hosted two NBA regular season games between the Phoenix Suns and the Utah Jazz, on November 2 and 3. The arena has also been a concert venue since 2000, and the first performer was the Japanese group Porno Graffitti.

- Ribbed, sloping roof
- The roof is a low, ribbed dome with a ridge across its center. Print friendly adapts the fine rib lines to the print scale; Full detail keeps them, which suits a larger print.
- Small stair blocks on the roof
- Small stair blocks and roof details sit along the roof's edge. A bigger print size keeps more of them, and layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm keep their edges crisp.
- One piece with the ground
- The Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium 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. The Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium 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.
