Summary

This 3D printed Frank Lloyd Wright Bachman-Wilson House is a detailed architectural model that includes all the internal floors and walls. When printed at a 0.4x scale, all the parts will fit on a 200mm by 200mm printer. The model can be printed in one color, or multiple colors. The two roofs are removable along with the second story floor and walls.

I have included a detailed PDF file which has printing and detailed assembly instructions. I have also included one-piece base and roof model options for larger printers.

The Usonian Bachman-Wilson house was built in 1956 in Millstone, New Jersey. In the 1970s, an addition was added to the carport with a door to the lower bedroom. The house was then restored in 1988. Threatened by flooding, it was dismantled in 2013 and moved to the Crystal Bridges Museum grounds in Bentonville, Arkansas. A reception-event structure was added to the carport side of the house by the Museum later on. This 3D model is derived from the design before either of the two additions.

I drew the original model in feet and inches. The resulting STL file gets scaled down 25.3 times in the slicer. When slicing at 0.4x scale, a 1:64 scale model is produced. Here is a list of railroad scales and slicer scales. Comment if you have tried any of these out.

G 1:25 1 slicer scaling (no scaling)
O 1:48 0.53 slicer scaling
S 1:64 0.40 slicer scaling
HO 1:87 0.29 slicer scaling
N 1:160 0.16 slicer scaling
