On the print

11 by 13 km, on a 160 mm print

The stage in its own color
The stage is added as a route, so it prints as its own part on the terrain with its own color. Change the color or the line in the generator, or print the whole map in one filament.
The footprint
The print opens in Terrain mode on an 11 by 13 km rectangle around the stage, with a margin on every side. Move or resize it in the generator to take in more of the area.
The route
The line follows OpenStreetMap roads from Ruakiwi Road to Te Ākau. A rally moves its start and finish from year to year, so the stage you remember may begin or end a little differently.

Common questions

Is the Te Akau South 3D print free?

Yes. The generator runs in your browser and exports a 3MF file you can open in any common slicer. There is no account or payment.

Does the print show the whole stage?

Yes. It opens on an 11 by 13 km rectangle around the 33.9 km road from Ruakiwi Road to Te Ākau, so the whole route fits with the land around it.

How tall is the terrain on the print?

The terrain prints at true scale, the same as the map. Raise the Elevation multiplier in the generator for steeper relief.

Can I get an STL instead of a 3MF?

The generator exports 3MF, which keeps each color as its own part. Any slicer can open it and save an STL if you need one.
