Description
This is a model of Chicago's Willis Tower, that I used to set a new tallest print record on 7/12/2010 @ 10:50PM. I took a Google sketchup model and heavily modified it, in order to print.

The model is 155mm tall! printed out at about 154mm. My bot is hacked, but using mostly original parts that came with the kit and printed parts to achieve the new record.
