hiya, I had a look. it's an awkward shape that's for sure. am not sure how you orientated it, but I set it flat as best as possible. I noticed you haven't added any dense layers as part of you support structure. This may help more. adding some inflation to spread it out a bit. I've saved the factor...

What material are you trying to print with? The link posted is a good starting point but I'm finding that material selection is just as important. For what it's worth, when I need good layer adhesion PETG is my go to material. Currently I am using PLA. I am intending to move to a Nylon bridge once ...

The parts we print are flat, 1.8 mm thick, but curved. We print them standing on the side with ...
