Speaking as the recipient of one of these bins:  Tilted at 45 degrees with the open end down and resting on the outside edge (the edge without the bracket that engages with the TTY pedistal).  Two "fins" of scaffolding supported the face of the bin to support it at this angle while printed.  The fins were printed with very narrow points of contact with the face they supported, so they broke off cleanly.  Light sanding removed all evidence they'd ever been there.  I have yet to complete what sanding I hope to do.
