PiggyBank_PrintableBase

The piggy bank design shines, but fast printing often yields an imperfect base that leaves something to be desired in terms of smoothness. To overcome this challenge, we've introduced a new bottom base that results in a highly satisfactory outcome. We have uploaded two variants: Original Model Enhanced with a modified height of 112.37mm Compact Version downsized to 75mm in height The larger design may intimidate some, particularly children aged 8 and up when put to the test through focus group sessions; we've observed it takes an excessive amount of time for it to fill up with coins. However, its smaller counterpart appears less daunting and significantly easier to complete. Guidelines For a file measuring 112.37mm in height, representing our large piggy bank model, make certain you possess sufficient clearance as well as enough material to achieve an incredibly solid outcome. In contrast, the smaller design (75mm in height) demands minimal material yet prints remarkably quickly, thanks in part to reduced layer height. Both models showcase excellent durability. Key specifications: Larger Piggy Bank - Printing with 0.2mm layer thickness yields exceptional results when coupled with four shells and a twenty percent infill ratio. Estimated 3mm filament requirements come out at seventeen meters. Compact Piggy Bank (75mm) With an improved two shell setup paired alongside a fifteen percent infill rate, this smaller design achieves surprisingly strong prints without compromise on integrity. Predicted requirements of the aforementioned model fall within six point eight meters for the estimated three mm thickness in its respective 3D printing materials.
