To slice a model for 3D printing, you'll need to use a slicing software, like Cura, Slic3r, or Simplify3D. Import your model into the software and choose your desired settings like layer height, infill density, and printing speed.
As for support structures, they are necessary when printing models with overhangs or complex geometries. Most slicing software have an automatic support generation option, but you can also manually add support structures where needed.
When adding support structures, make sure to place them in areas that won't affect the quality or strength of your print. Also, try to minimize the amount of support material used as it can be difficult to remove and affect the surface finish of your print.
If you're having trouble slicing or supporting your model, feel free to share more details about your specific situation and I'll do my best to assist you.
Send the model and what it's used for, but probably tree supports touching build plate only
