Recreation of the device from Barno's Make ANY cable retractable with this DIY solution video.   

This initial version is meant to replicate the design from the video as close as possible.  Will likely make future enhancements to reduce size and improve function.

Version is still untested.  May require tweaks to geometry (will update as I go).

Printing

  • Designed to require no supports.  Should print well with most settings or filament
  • Able to print everything on a single Bambu a1-mini build plate (rotate base to fit).

Setup and Use

See video

Required Parts: 

  •  m4 bolts + nuts and washers (TODO: update with sizes)
  • 1 6200Z bearing
  • Some sort of weight to attach to the bracket
