I tried to print the original model multiple times but it either failed due to curling and getting knocked off the bed, or ended up looking terrible because of the curling, which is not uncommon for models with a fillet rather than a chamfer on the bottom face. So, I projected the shape and extruded the base completely flat to eliminate the problem. I print them sequentially to reduce risk, as seen in the image. The “sharp” edges are not uncomfortable to hold or use, but a plastic deburring tool is great to knock those off.

I then added a version with a chamfer instead of flat or filleted which also printed out nicely.
