Newbie Print a part from Thingiverse

I have never printed a part other than Prusa's demos. I would need your advice on how to print a part.

I found a part on Thingiverse. I looked it on Simplify3D and I find that several parts are placed in a funny way. I wonder if I print as it is or if I have to orient the parts so that they are as flat as possible.

Hi Serge,

I'm no expert either but I would place the parts as shown below and slice with supports enabled.

I try to make safe suggestions,You should understand the context and ensure you are happy that they are safe before attempting to apply my suggestions, what you do, is YOUR responsibility. Location Halifax UK
