I don't have a Nespresso machine but when I saw this awesome design I just had to remix it with the lean.

The tower underwent a major restoration taking over 10 years from 1990 to 2001. Prior to the renovation the tower leaned at an angle of 5.5 degrees. After the renovation the tower now leans at 3.99 degrees.

This remix includes both a pre and post restoration version of the base. I included the STL's from the original so everything can be downloaded in one go.

Print instructions

This is a massive print with lots of overhangs and bridges and depending on what version you make will be leaning at either 5.5 or 3.99 degrees so I recommend using supports.

I haven't printed it but I did slice the base and with supports and at 0.3 draft the print of just the base is more than a day and almost half a kilo of filament. At 0.2 quality the print will take 30 hours. Also keep in mind that you still need to print the top and 6 middle floors (12 hours each). So that's about 5 days of printing. Since I don't have a Nespresso nor do I intend to get one someone else will have to let everyone know how it goes if they print this.
