Agree with arvidj on the supports. I would try it without them, or maybe just tree supports. I've had pretty good luck with overhangs at an angle like that.
But the strength of those vertical rods will be suspect because of orientation. They can separate along layer lines. It's not going to see much in the way of stress, but any pressure on the plate might snap them off where they fit into the grinder. They appear to be hollow, so maybe stuff a dowel in there to reinforce?

Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts
