Cannot print lamp base

I cannot get the base of this lamp to print http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1646315 .

I'm printing with Hatchbox PLA and using S3D to slice. I did try Prusa Slic3r but had the same results.

It's the overhangs on the bottom, the rest comes out fine. Please see images attached.

I've tried reducing the temp, reducing the print speed by 70% on the outer perimeter, increased extrusion multiplier and I've tried adding support. I've increased the perimeters to have no infill but I can't get it to print nice.

Any thoughts on how to sort this out?

Re: Cannot print lamp base

Have you tried to change the print orientation. Maybe change the orientation so that it is printing starting with the curve part touching the build plate.
