All credits to the original uploader. I only cut it in 3 to be able to print it large.
On an UM2 you can make it almost 60cm high.
If you scale one part, remember which scale value you printed it at and apply that value also to the other pieces! Otherwise you will be wasting many hours of printing.
To help finding the max scale you can print:
The middle part is the highest
The bottom part is (of course) the widest
Check which scale values you can print each at maximum, and take the lowest value. Use that value for all 3 parts.
For an UM2 you do not need to change the scale! If you use the 'maximize scale' tool of Cura, it will be made smaller. While scale 1 fits perfectly (already tested on my UM2). Disable the skirt in the advanced options then though.
You can print the middle and top piece in one session, BUT, i guess it's quicker and it gives a better result to seperate those prints. Otherwise your printer has to travel back and forth every single layer, which doesn't add anything positive to the print.
