That makes sense, thank you. I still added supports for this orientation under the top end of the curve. It was originally designed to print on the bottom, but I changed it this way because the original orientation needed too much support. I should have printed it on its side.

not the original commenter, but it always amazes me how strong a 3d print can be if made considering the layers orientation, and how weak when I don’t
It’s something like 5× stronger in the direction it prints than across layers, with great adhesion. It’s even worse if your adhesion is lower.
