Piggy is my first model for 3d printing ever made (in beginning of 2019)

On Printables I'm uploading updated models of full set of Piggy and Boar

Now it's in version 2025 with major changes in 2023

Piggy / Boar is 40mm tall

Model for keyring - 31mm

Earrings - 19mm - you can resize it up for stronger connection or for more details (like on boar model 125% will have little nicer fangs)

All models (excluding earrings and keyrings wich are only solid) are in two versions: solid and with holes

Piggy_holes is with holes for eyes that will fit 4-5mm (better closer to 4) of 1.75mm filament (best would be black)

Piggy-Boar_holes is with holes for both eyes (black 4-5mm) and fangs (white 5mm)

Filament for eyes should be cut straight. For fangs sth like a 45dgr angle

Models with holes may need infill (Prusa Slicer is automaticly adding bridges to support this)

Additionally there are files Piggy-Phone_ADDON_Eyes, Piggy-Lying-n-Phone_ADDON_Smile and PiggyBoar-Phone_ADDON_Fangs wich can be used to cover the holes or to use in multicolor printing

Merge it with base models (select both, right click, merge) when printing in single color

Phone stands are for 8-16mm phone thickness (as in file names and on the bottom of the models after print) - resize for different phone size or for more stability (like 10mm resized to 160% for 16mm phone will be more stable than 16mm model version)

Phone will be at 12° angle. The bigger the difference between the model size and phone size the highier angle so less stable

To make a Keyring use a model of your choice and add there a keyring addon (Piggy-Phone_ADDON_Keyring). Both models should be in the exact same position in your slicer to be sure that they will merge properly

Then select both models and merge them (right click menu)

Keyring models are with a ‘frame’ - a flat surface that will not be printed. This way it is easy to set it in the right spot - Ignore model 'errors' and DO NOT try to 'fix' the model

After merging you can easly resize or rotate the model if needed

For resizing phone models use the equasion:

‘Needed space (in milimeters)’ divided by ‘model number’ multiplied by 100% = 'Needed model size in percent'

For example if you need more stable 16mm you can take 10mm version resized to: 16 / 10 * 100% = 160%

Piggy and Boar are with Lying version too, looks like phone holder but are without a holes for a phone

Printing tips

No supports needed

I printed them without infill (Prusa Slicer adds bridge support inside). Phone or Holes versions may need some infill when using different slicers

Made for 0.4mm nozzle (even earrings looks good with this size, but print them with smaller layer height and much slower speed)

Printed with 0.2 and 0.1 layer height

2-3 walls (perimeters)

For smaller kids (2-4yo) print with 3 walls or more (or with infill if filament is not transparent) and with something stronger than PLA

UPDATE 23 VI 2025

Changed angle of PHONE models hole from 16 to 12dgr - there will be more chance that the phone will not fall over when put vertically

Improved phone keyring model a little more
