Important Printing Information

This is a digital 3D-printable piggy-bank design.

Final print quality, dimensional accuracy, strength, colour appearance, and coin-slot performance may vary depending on printer, nozzle, filament, calibration, layer height, wall settings, infill, top and bottom layers, bed adhesion, colour-change setup, orientation, and slicer profile.

Always inspect the sliced preview carefully before printing.

Pay particular attention to:

• Coin-slot dimensions

• Upper rim

• Raised artwork

• Thin lettering

• Layer adhesion

• Base flatness

• Wall strength

• Colour-change placement

• Any removable or fitted sections used for accessing the coins

Normal FDM characteristics such as visible layer lines, seams, slight dimensional variation, and minor colour or surface differences should be expected.

Sandstorm 3D Designs is not responsible for failed prints, wasted filament, warping, adhesion failures, colour-change problems, incorrect slicer settings, printer malfunctions, dimensional variation, weak layer bonding, broken components, improper assembly, or other printing-related losses.

Files are supplied as-is, and the user is responsible for selecting suitable materials, printer settings, assembly methods, and final use.

Piggy Bank & Coin Use

The Dew Piggy Bank is intended to hold ordinary loose coins inserted through the coin slot.

Coin sizes and thicknesses vary between countries and denominations, so confirm that the coins you intend to use fit comfortably through the opening.

Do not force oversized coins or other objects through the slot.

As the bank fills, the weight of the contents increases and may place additional stress on the printed walls, base, or access components.

For normal use:

• Add coins gradually.

• Keep the bank on a stable surface.

• Avoid overfilling.

• Do not shake or throw the bank.

• Do not lift or carry a heavily filled bank by a thin decorative section.

• Inspect periodically for cracking or layer separation.

• Stop using the bank if the body or base begins to deform or weaken.

Sandstorm 3D Designs does not provide a guaranteed maximum coin weight because finished strength depends on filament, wall thickness, infill, layer adhesion, printer calibration, and print quality.

Coin & Child Safety

Coins are a choking hazard.

The Dew Piggy Bank should not be treated as a children's toy, particularly when it contains coins or other small objects.

Keep loose coins, broken printed pieces, and removable components away from young children and pets.

For households with young children:

Not recommended for children under 5 years of age without direct adult supervision.

Never allow a young child to play unsupervised with loose coins.

If the finished bank cracks or breaks, remove it from use immediately and dispose of or repair damaged parts appropriately.

Stability & Placement

A partially or fully loaded piggy bank can become considerably heavier than the empty print.

Always place the finished bank on a flat, stable surface.

Avoid:

• High shelves where it could fall

• Unstable furniture

• Table or desk edges

• Areas where it can easily be knocked over

• Locations where a falling bank could strike a person, pet, computer, monitor, or other valuable item

If the bank becomes excessively heavy, move it carefully using both hands.

Filament & Heat Considerations

PLA is generally suitable for normal indoor piggy-bank and decorative use but may soften or deform when exposed to elevated temperatures.

PETG or another suitable filament may provide additional toughness or temperature resistance depending on the printer and intended environment.

Regardless of material:

• Keep away from heaters.

• Keep away from fireplaces and open flame.

• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight.

• Do not leave in a hot vehicle.

• Do not place near hot electronics or other heat-producing equipment.

• Replace the bank if heat exposure causes visible deformation.

No common 3D-printing filament should automatically be considered heatproof or indestructible.

Cleaning & Care

For normal care:

• Empty coins before cleaning when practical.

• Wipe gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth.

• Use mild soap only when necessary.

• Avoid harsh solvents or aggressive cleaners unless known to be compatible with the selected filament.

• Dry thoroughly before returning coins.

• Do not place in a dishwasher.

• Do not expose to boiling water or high-temperature cleaning.

Not a Beverage Container

Although the model is styled after a beverage can, the Dew Piggy Bank is not designed or certified to hold beverages or food.

Do not use it for:

• Drinking

• Water

• Soft drinks

• Alcohol

• Food storage

• Candy storage intended for consumption

• Other direct food-contact uses

The finished FDM print is intended as a decorative coin bank only.

Safety & Intended Use

The Dew Piggy Bank is intended as a decorative coin bank and display item.

It is not intended as:

• A toy

• A beverage container

• A food-contact item

• A teething product

• Safety equipment

• A structural product

• A load-bearing container

Inspect the finished print before use and periodically afterwards.

Discontinue use if you notice:

• Cracking

• Sharp broken edges

• Layer separation

• Warping

• Damage around the coin slot

• Loose decorative sections

• Damage to the bottom or coin-access area

Broken 3D-printed pieces may have sharp edges and may also present a choking hazard.
