Description

This is an adaptation of the linked gaffer tape gun, but modified to have channelized rollers and a funneling feature at the front that pulls the cords into the channel automatically, rather than trying to guide them under the center of the tape yourself.  The channel allows room for multiple cords, then pushes the tape down on either side.  The tape gun is also widened to hold a 4-inch tape roll.  You can see the bill of materials used by the original model, and just add 3 heat inserts and 3 more screws due to the addition of the funnel at the front. The rollers are sliced in half for better print quality and therefore need to be printed twice.  (The tape roller adapter needs to be printed 4 times because you need two of them)

The handle is a 1-inch wooden dowel cut to your desired length.  Some sanding is required intentionally for a nice, tight fit because I travel with it and prefer not to have to install the screw each time I use it.  The handle is another file I found, scaled to 203% found here:

I am considering adding a tape cutter to the back, but I'm not sure if it is worth it.

Lastly, the files for the sides used to have a minor defect where there was a small section of the first layer that wasn't printing but that has been fixed and the STL files have been replaced.
