PHONE STAND
Phone stands are for 8-16mm phone thickness (as in file names and on the bottom of the models)
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 it will be less stable

PHONE_0 is a solid model without any space for a phone
Use as a toy or decoration

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 is my first model for 3D printing and a second model printed ever (after test print)
First version was made in Feb 2019 - it is on the last photo
There was some improvements made over the years but now, in 2026, I completely remede the models
It's looking better, is easier to print and with much nicer props

Made in Blender 3D

Update 09 XI 2023
Removed addons (props)
A lot of small improvements to the models - all photos are updated
It's more 'cute' , easier to print and file is smaller
See gif with two renders of Piggy Set for comparison

UPDATE 22 VII 2024
Small fixes for nose holes
Added ADDON with a smile for multicolor printing

UPDATE 28 IV 2026
Version 1.5
Completely remade models
Body is much rounder and smoother
Remade Piggy props and added back in here
Changed a license to not allowing remixes

3D printing settings

No supports needed
No infill needed but it is recommended (will strenghten the print)
0.1-0.2mm layer height
2 walls or more
Made for 0.4mm nozzle - you can use smaller for better quality of earrings or keyrings

For smaller kids (2-4yo) print with at least 3 walls and with something stronger than PLA

If your cooling fan blows cool air only from sides you should rotate the model by 90 dgr to have a better cooling for a front and back of the model

Phone stand KEYRING
To add a keyring to a phone stand model select both files (eg. PiggyV15-Boar_PHONE_0 and PiggyV15-Boar_PHONE_ADDON_Keyring) and drop them in the slicer
Merge models before printing
Ignore model errors. They are with a rectangle around the model to help you position the model right - it will not be printed or affect the model look

HOLES
You can use filament strings to work as eyes and fangs
Add a model of your choice (eg. PiggyV15), then right-click on it and add a negative volume model (eg. Eyes)
Model will print with holes where you can put some filament and cut the rest with pliers
Eyes should be cut streight. Fangs looks good when cutted with same angle as snout ('nose')
You can then use a small torch to gently heat the ends to smooth it and get rid of white mark after a cut - don't overheat whole model!
Ignore model errors. They are with a rectangle around the model to help you position the model right - it will not be printed or affect the model look

MULTICOLOR
For a multicolor print select base file (eg. PiggyV15_PHONE_12mm) and all of multicolor files for this model (eyes, smile)
Then drop them all at once to the slicer and click YES if asked to merge it (or merge it by yourself)
Select a color for each part and you are ready to print
Ignore model errors. They are with a rectangle around the model to help you position the model right - it will not be printed or affect the model look

Props can be printed with few colors without automatic filament change
Pause on the right spot (you can add a pause in slicer in layer view) and change the filament
