Interlocking winder for wind-up Boat V5

thingiverse

Shout out to GreenDot for creating one of the most well-designed toys I've ever seen on Thingiverse! Unfortunately, an over-enthusiastic child accidentally rounded off the shoulders on top of the shaft of the pawl/Mitnehmer, causing the handle/Aufzieher to cam-off and spin freely. I probably could have prevented this by tightening the screw holding the assembly in place, but I wanted to avoid over-tightening it. So, I decided to add some extra positive engagement to these parts instead. To do this, I added slots to the pawl/Mitnehmer shaft that are engaged by splines I inserted into the recess of the handle/Aufzieher.
