Bell Tower of St. Andrea - Mantua, Italy

Benvenuti in Italia! 🇮🇹

Welcome to Italy!
 

This is a collaboration with Italian studio Arche 3D, who kindly shared this model with MiniWorld to be published. 

The Bell Tower (Campanile, in Italian) of Saint Andrew (Sant'Andrea) is a landmark of the Northern Italian city of Mantua (Mantova), in Lombardy. It looms over the ancient downtown, and it belongs to the Basilica. The Bell Tower itself though is much older than the church, dating to 1414 (from Wikipedia).

MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this historical model to life as a homage to all the people of Mantua. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture!

Printing Tips

No supports needed, this has been optimized to eliminate all overhangs.

Suggested parameters:

Use a raft or brim if you experience wobble, or split into parts.

Without input shaping, print slow for better details: 15 or 20mm/s for outer perimeters.
Fine-tune retraction to avoid stringing.
Perimeters: 2
Top layers: 3
Infill: as low as 12%, lightning pattern ok.
