Ranking of the best piggy banks for beer caps for 2022

Collecting beer bottle caps is an economical hobby and requires a special container or other device to collect beer caps.

Piggy banks for such a hobby are sold in all online stores. They can also be found in stores that sell household goods, but in both cases, the consumer is often faced with the problem of choice, because he does not know what he should pay attention to and what to consider when choosing an unusual piggy bank. Below we consider which type is better to buy, selection criteria, as well as a selection of the best models.

Kinds

What types of piggy banks are there? They are divided into types regarding the material, the presence or absence of a glass insert, and also regarding how the device is fixed - on the surface or on the wall. Consider each of the types to make it easier to navigate when choosing a product in this category.

Views relative to material:

• Made of wood - wooden piggy banks are environmentally friendly and, due to the natural color, look very stylish. Mostly they are made from beech and oak, because these trees have high strength and hardness, which prevents products from cracking and deformation. The disadvantage of this material is that it needs to be constantly looked after, because dust is clearly visible on it.
• Made of plastic - plastic containers for lids are lighter in weight than wooden ones, and they have a wider range of designs, but such things cannot be called eco-friendly, safe for the health of the buyer and the environment. If we talk about other characteristics, then plastic products are as durable as wooden ones, and dust is hardly noticeable on them. At the same time, they are easily bent due to their reduced hardness and can be deformed at high temperatures.

There are corresponding types of piggy banks regarding the presence or absence of a glass insert:

• With a glass insert - such containers have a more elegant, aesthetic design, but they are easy to break, since the glass part is more fragile than the rest;
• Without a glass insert - a container without a glass insert lasts a very long time, but its appearance loses to models with a glass insert.

Types relative to the plane on which beer cap collecting fixtures are placed:

• Suspended - they are attached to the wall using one or more hooks or studs, which are subsequently driven into the wall. A distinctive feature of the species, in addition to the presence of mounts, is a large size;
• Standing - this type of piggy bank can be placed on a table, cabinet or window sill. Most often it has a rectangular shape and medium size.

Each of the consumers prefers one or another type and type, based on their own preferences, so it is impossible to say which type and type are the best. Much depends on the taste of the buyer.

Criterias of choice

Often, consumers do not pay attention to home accessories and therefore make many mistakes when buying them. Piggy banks for beer caps are among such goods, as they are bought mainly as a gift for beer lovers. So in order to purchase a product that you will not have to return back to the store later, you need to familiarize yourself with the criteria for choosing devices for collecting beer caps:

• Dimensions and plane - any accessory takes up space in the house, so you need to decide in advance on the dimensions and decide in which plane the accessory will be located: on the table or on the wall. Such devices usually measure at least 15 centimeters in length.
• Capacity - wall-mounted piggy banks usually have a limited capacity of up to 30 pieces, while those that must stand in a horizontal plane can hold an unlimited amount.
• Shockproof - The collection container must withstand a fall of at least 1.5 meters, but stores do not provide opportunities to try the shockproof qualities of the product. For this reason, it is worth paying attention to the number and size of glass parts, as they break first. There should not be more than 2 of them, and they should not occupy more than 1/4 of the structure.
• Lack of roughness - both plastic and wood can have roughness. The uneven surface of the product can damage the skin, therefore, in accordance with the recommendations of the best manufacturers in this field, the surface of the piggy bank should be smooth and not have nicks. If it is made of wood, then it is also worth checking if the device has been treated with oil, as the oil fills the pores and creates a thin layer between the surface of the device and the user's skin, thereby preventing small particles of wood from digging into the epidermis.

Following these three tips will allow the buyer to make the right choice when choosing a piggy bank and purchase a quality and safe product.

This is an easy thing to do at home. To create it, you will need several rectangular blocks of wood, super glue, two photo frames, as well as a step-by-step instruction below:

• First, get the glass out of the photo frame. We take measurements and transfer them to three wooden bars.
• Secondly, we cut off the wooden bars of the appropriate sizes. The optimal size of the long parts is 18-20 cm, and the short ones are 4-6 cm.
• Thirdly, we glue the wooden parts of the product together, and then use the same glue to attach glass to them. The latter should be on the front side, so that the number of covers can be seen.
• Fourthly, we attach metal studs or special holders or legs at the back, thanks to which the product will stand steadily on a horizontal plane.
• Fifthly, we process the wooden parts with wood oil.

A homemade piggy bank can be decorated with special felt-tip pens, acrylic paints or glass paints and presented as a gift.
