Based on the plot Z= - (X^2) - (Y^2) (aka paraboloid) but instead of being a continuous I've discretized it.

This is based on the plot Z= - (X^2) - (Y^2) (known as a paraboloid) but instead of being a continuous surface, I've discretized it so that it is formed from a collection of varying height square prisms.
Three STL files included:
Paraboloid.stl is for a machine with a single extruder. it is formed from 16x16 square prisms, where each square is 3mm per side.
ParaboloidOddSquares.stl and ParaboloidEvenSquares.stl are used for a dual extruder machine so that every other square is a different color (same dimensions as above)
Finally I've include the openSCAD source which allows you to parametrize the number of squares per side as well as the size of each square.
