This is a battery cell case that was a pain last time I printed it with supports

Ohh nice, battery pez dispenser!

Is that considered a raft + supports or just supports on there?

Just supports, I had to manually paint them in to prevent the slicer from putting them all the way up the side

Looks like the model is just resting on supports. Might have a roof or "support interface" (a layer between supports and model)
