60in Tape Measure Spooling Case w/ Rewinding Pin

thingiverse

This is a custom version of the outstanding measuring tape spooling box by thistof. Since my tape is significantly shorter (60in), I scaled down the case and made several adjustments to enhance the design. The print process was done with no supports and low quality settings (15% infill, 60mm/s, .3mm) which allowed me to complete all three parts in about an hour. I added a pin to facilitate rewinding the tape, modified the inlet to prevent accidental tape entanglement, and included a hole for storing the rewinding pin, although it may be somewhat loose. To keep the pin secure, I used some adhesive tack.
