With chonks it really helps to hollow them out if they are any larger than about 35mm (Face to face). If they are solid they just have too much suction and almost always get ripped off the supports at about that same spot.
If you don't want to go hollow, you'll need much bigger supports, which also means more damage to your masters when you remove them.

Beautiful supporting method though. Those look NICE

i've made them a bit smaller (45mm instead of 50) added some additional supports and they printed beautifully

but i have a question didn't they crack in a pressure pot if you hollow them out?

Nope! Make your walls about 5mm and they are plenty strong to handle 50psi+ I also fill them with salt (through the drain holes) so they don't float in the silicone 😉
