For whatever reason, the top piece warped despite what appear to be basically perfect supports.

Why not print “back side down”? So you need specific line orientation?
Yeah op. Rotate it so it’s printing with bottom and top being the open parts on the middle.
Rough sketch but hope this helps.
That’s a good idea, maybe I’ll go e that a go tomorrow
Not sure why it would warp there, perhaps infill percentage is too high?
If you don’t need the layer lines to be in a specific orientation I’d consider rotating the model back 90° for the reprint, hopefully that should avoid any warping.
That does seem to be a good suggestion. I think I’ll do that.
The heat from printing the end of those supports/ limbs. You need to reduce the heat as much as possible without clogging your nozzle.
Edit: A lot of people figured that out before me. Good luck!
Is there any reason you can’t make the model in two separate pieces instead, with the floor and sides as one print, and the roof as another print, to either be glued or clipped together?
I’d think that would avoid the warping problem altogether, plus save wasted filament. Though in all fairness, it would still be nice to learn what’s causing the warping anyways, for sake of future prints…
Being honest, I’d printed this 5 or 6 times before with the default supports. Most of the time it was fine but the last two times it was falling over and basically making a messy bridge. So I tried organic supports, which is what we see here.
