My wife needed 6 feet of chain for a theater production. I tried a number of different models and the best of the one's I tried seemed to have adhesion issues, especially around the end. I had a number of long prints that failed. So I concluded it's best to print out the links separately, and then bind them with glue at the end. Naturally you only needed to bind every other link. So I have a mix of formed and slotted links. I've placed them in a way I found that was most successful. I've shaved a small flat portion at the bottom of each link and stood them vertically, with shared brim, and close together. The flat bit will likely be in the elbow of the next link so it shouldn't stand out. Sharing the brim also makes it easy to put them together as a cluster.
