Print two copies of the file. In order to preserve a smooth sliding contact surface, print the files on the side as they are oriented. Try raising the model off the bed by 3mm or so and building tree support up to the overhangs.

Hey Dave ! I'm so imppressed by this Heart design ! Great Work ! Say, cann you describe how you designed it ? You inpired me to do some Spiral parts similar like this but I can't figure out how you did it in a way that you only have one part wich you have to print twice.... Thanks !
