-Simple label dispenser for labels.
-Multiple sizes available. For each size that I've uploaded, the holder will accommodate a roll of labels with a diameter up to 5mm larger than the name of the file indicates, and up to 3mm taller (for each file, the first number indicates the diameter, the second indicates the width of a full/new roll). It was either name them all based on the specific roll of labels I designed them for, or name them based on the dimensions of the internal chamber. I opted for the first, it seemed more logical, or so I tell myself.
-For example, for the 65x12.5mm roll model, the internal cavity actually has a diameter of 70mm, and the height of the slot that the labels come out of has a height of 15.5mm.
I've included the step file so you can modify it if you have labels that are close to the right size, or I can modify and post a file if you give me dimensions.
The button is the same for all size dispensers (which also means the required spring is the same size for each). The ‘Button’ file has a diameter of 0.15mm smaller than the hole in the lid, the ‘Button loose’ file is 0.225mm smaller.
The spring I used is 4.5mm wide and 25mm uncompressed (10mm fully compressed). Any spring that is up to 5mm wider will work, as long as it is at least 15mm tall (and can compress down to at least 15mm or smaller). I sourced my spring from a random pen from a random coworker from a random drawer in the laboratory where I work. They haven't noticed yet.
Print pieces as oriented. The button will require supports.
Assemble as shown:

Gather parts.

Slide label through slot from inside.

Place roll in dispenser.

Place spring in center.

Place button on spring.

Hold button down, line up mated chamfers on lid and body, and slide lid into place until button clicks into place.

Bend the end of the label strip back under itself and feed through the second slot, and out the third.

Label stuff.
