9 mm tall on a 160 mm print
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.
- Curtain of vertical tubes
All four faces are wrapped in tubes that twist open into narrow gaps, with a ragged crest of tube tops standing just above the roof line. Print larger, or use Full detail, so the gaps read.
- Flat roof and its fittings
The roof is one flat truss deck crossed by fine rib lines, with small plant rooms and a screen raised on legs in front of one face. Layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm help those shallow boxes survive.
- One piece with the ground
The Wukesong Arena 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 Wukesong Arena 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 the Wukesong Arena
Wukesong Arena is an indoor sports and entertainment venue in Beijing, China, purpose-built for the basketball preliminaries and finals at the 2008 Summer Olympics. Work started on March 29, 2005 and finished on January 11, 2008. There is room for 19,000 people inside, and the building covers 63,000 square meters. Ice hockey's tournament at the 2022 Winter Olympics used it as its main venue, and a flexible rink from the Finnish maker Vepe Oy, produced in November 2016, is part of the equipment.
Beijing Wukesong Cultural & Sports Co. Ltd. built it; five shareholders own that company. The center became a notable piece of Beijing's Olympic legacy, a place for cultural, sporting, leisure, recreational and commercial activity, and few projects in the city have combined those purposes with large gardens and green space on such a scale. Sponsors have renamed it repeatedly: MasterCard took the rights in January 2011, LeTV Sports in December 2015, the name Huaxi Live followed for a while, and Cadillac, part of General Motors, held the rights from September 2017 until 2023.
The Kontinental Hockey League said in December 2015 that its new Beijing team would play there; on September 5, 2016 Kunlun Red Star's Anssi Salmela opened the scoring at the venue's first hockey game, a goal that also counted as the team's first at home in the league; Red Star won 6–3. No other entertainment venue in Beijing is bigger, and artists from home and abroad appear across a wide range of musical genres. The 2017 All-Star Game of the Chinese Basketball Association drew 18,000 people.
