This is a box for storing cables, that has a spring mechanism built in to retract cable into the box by pushing a button.

1 pawl
2 shaft-half

1 gear32-mod1.5 (ring gear)
2 gear8-mod1.5
2 gear16-mod1.5
you will need glue for assembling the shaft-halves and for their insertion into the spring shaft. You may want to lightly glue gear16-mod1.5 to gear8-mod1.5. I would recommend lubrication, such as silicone or wax for all slidng surfaces.
