Description:

This snap-together spinning tape measure spool has a spinning handle as well as the main spool section.  No glue is required.  I recommend PETG but this updated version may have greater strength than previous versions if printed with PLA.

 

Two different versions for 15mm or 20mm wide soft tape measures

 

Version 6:

  • Larger handle, easier to hold and stronger with larger swivel interface;

     

Handle print orientation (see image):

 

  • PETG: handle may be re-orientated to be printed upright (see picture, standing).
    • no supports required and smoother finish on handle;
    • slightly weaker strength due to layer lines, this orientation may not be suitable for PLA; and
    • use you're slicer's ‘Lay on Face (F)’ command and invert the handle onto it's top surface (once assembled) prior to slicing

       

  • PLA:  Default orientation (as downloaded) with handle laying on it's side with some minor supports (picture);

     

  • Print Orientation
    Orientate the handle using the  ‘Lay on Face (F)’  to desired orientation prior to printing.
