Description

A stylish desktop tape dispenser for home or office use. This dispenser supports standard size Scotch tape roles with a core width of 1 inch (~26mm) and a tape width of 3/4 inch (~20 mm).

 

* Features a double sawtooth design that catches and cuts tape cleanly!

 

I printed with multiple filaments to create a rainbow spectrum to show off the ability to band colors due to the print orientation of the dispenser halves. Please be creative and share your results!

 

Notes:

  • No supports required.
  • All parts printed without using brims.
  • Duplicate and mirror the dispenser half model to create each side.
  • Easily assemble the two halves using four printed connectors.
  • Drop in place the teeth.
  • Insert the pin core and shaft through the center of the tape role and drop in place.
  • No glue, screws, or additional parts required.
  • I originally printed this model using Bambu PLA Matte filament which worked well. I later reprinted the teeth with a Bambu PLA Basic which resulted in them being a bit sharper and cutting the tape better.
  • I printed all parts except the teeth with 15% infill at 0.16mm (Optimal in Bambu Studio slicer).
  • The teeth I printed with 100% infill at 0.08mm (Extra Fine in Bambu Studio slicer).
  • Shown as printed on a Bambu X1C.

the cutter didn't work so well for my tape, so I made a small adapter for one of the broken tape dispensersni had lying around.

bella l’idea ma la parte che dovrebbe tagliare il nastro non taglia.

Thank you for the feedback! If you're having issues with the blade some other users have suggested retrofitting a metal cutter from a disposable tape dispenser or even from a aluminum foil box. I personally use the tape dispenser daily with the printed blade. It may take a little practice to get the right tearing motion since the printed blade cuts a bit differently than a metal one would. I hope this helps!

Took a few tries and I had to slow my X1C down a bit to get this to print.

Thank you for the feedback and ratings! I'm very happy to hear that it worked out well for you! May I ask if the issue you were experiencing with the connectors was bed adhesion? And if so what type of build plate? Knowing this info definitely helps me. Thanks :)
