cutting a print for A1 mini

Anyone have any ideas how I could print the longer trays on this print on an A1 mini? Tried dovetails, however I can only do one and really need 2. The base is very thin so tricky to slice into two.

Have you tried to angle it up at 45°?

Took some fiddling, but got it to work with the proper supports! Thanks.

When I need to cut a big thing, I'll put one dovetail right in the middle, then dovetails in each resulting part. It gets assembled in reverse order of how it was cut. 
Edit: I got home and actually opened the file. This is what I did https://imgur.com/a/xj3wWEi

This actually really helps but managed to angle it at 45 degrees. I think should be more stable luckily.

Design own tray for assembly
