Bishop Johnson Memorial Tower

<p>This is a model of the Bishop Johnson Memorial Tower, a part of The Bishop's School in La Jolla (where I live). I made this in Fusion 360 for fun and experimentation one day, and tried to make it as realistic as possible (although some parts were, admittedly, eyeballed).</p> <p>Note: I'd suggest filling in some of the interior spaces, if you plan on printing the model. Because I tried to replicate the real thing, there are many details in the model (in particular inside the tower) that translate horribly to printing.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Buildings &amp; Structures Summary</h3> <p>This is a model of the Bishop Johnson Memorial Tower, a part of The Bishop's School in La Jolla (where I live).

Removing supports from within the model was pretty tough and risked breaking some of the details, but in an earlier print I filled in all of the interior spaces in CAD, making support removal significantly easier and faster.</p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3> <p>I made this in Autodesk Fusion 360 over the course of a couple hours. I largely relied on Google Earth (the desktop application) for dimensions and as a rough reference, although a large part of the top had to be made through reference images and a fair amount of guessing.</p>
