Hi Tim,
I have never tried that large of an STL file, but I have had 400MB build
files!
I think you could build using Stereolithography. I am guessing that you
have tried different orientations and that this is a very large part
which is why
the supports are giving you a problem. I am sure you have thought about
splitting the part too. I am curious how this works out for you. If I
can be of
service, please call.
Good luck,
Jim
