I designed a three-part piggy bank for the competition. It consists of an upper part, a lower part and a plate on which, for example, funny sayings or congratulations can be placed. 
 

The slogan plate is inserted into the groove and the lower part is fixed to the upper part with screws. There are two versions of the upper part: one for the use of M3 threaded inserts (piggy_bank_upper_inserts) and one for the direct screwing in of M3 flat head screws (piggy_bank_upper). All parts can be printed without support structures if oriented correctly.

The PrusaSlicer, for example, can be used to customize the slogan plate.  

  • Import piggy_bank_plate_empty into PrusaSlicer
  • Right click on the part and select Add part and chose Text
  • Enter your text and adapt it to your needs
  • I used 0.6mm depth (this means 3 layers if sliced with 0.2mm)
  • Add a color change at a hight of 2mm

UPDATE 18.11.2023: When assembling the first prototype, I noticed that the tolerances for the baffle plate and the associated groove were a bit tight. I have now adjusted this.
