Description

Scan touched up in Meshmixer and Blender - actually used 3D Builder to hollow out and put slot in.

Use my profile as it has support blockers to ensure the inside stays empty.

2 things in one here - piggy bank and a game removing the supports haha :)

 

 

Slot ok for small coins - feel free to use negative part in bambu to enlarge for larger coins or your currency size.

Small hole at bottom to see if things are in there - but it's old school - the only way things are coming out is with a hammer! :)

Scan from model dating from 1300s - 1400s from the Cleveland Museum of Art.

The word for piggy bank in Eastern Java is tjèlèngan, meaning ‘wild boar.’

Description

Do I look familiar to you? My round and exaggerated form makes me perfect for storing precious coins, which could be inserted through the slot (now closed) on the hump of my back. My fierce expression is a warning to scare off any burglars, and the padlock and chain around my neck indicate my function as a personal bank. Yes, I am a piggy bank—a lucky one that has survived intact for over 600 years! Usually we end up broken by people who want our coins.
