Print in two halves with minimal supports. Holes in each half allow a piece of 2.85mm filament to be inserted to line up each half to glue the halves together. ABS can be firmly glued together with acetone or a mixture of ABS disolved in acetone. It should work in PLA or other materials. The nerves may be too fragile in PLA
