    You could flip it over and print it on a raft, but you might get a lot of burrs. Then use tree supports for the gourd-like thing under the neck.

      I did that last night, but couldn’t get the supports to show up for under the gourd like thing. . I thought may be orca knows it better than me on supports, but sure enough it detached itself midway. What’s worse, I woke up this morning and tried to remove the supports on the face, and they were super hard to remove. I pulled them with needlenose pliers and ended up ripping off the whole face of the instrument. Are my settings wrong, or did I just let it cool down too much? I used the settings from here https://www.reddit.com/r/OrcaSlicer/comments/15yjz2a/best_tree_support_settings_ive_used/

        I think the better answers are already here. It should have had preprinted supports, and the designer may never have thought about actually printing it. 2 halves makes sense.

        It’s a shame the raft didn’t work out. If anything, you may still need to print the little gourd separately.
