**********

In this version, the improvements are the same as the Spiral Pattern, but made with a "lightning pattern":

There's also a Diamond Pattern here.

Features:

1. Thinner walls and less bulky - faster print.
2. Added a spiral pattern for visual interest.
3. Eliminated the bump-out feature on the cap for the finger pocket - it's completely round now.
4. Refined the rewind arrows.

2 variants of the Cap are provided:

1. Arrow Style 1 - conventional
2. Arrow Style 2 - triangles

Additional Design Variants are below:

1. Winder with Diamond Pattern here.
2. Winder with Spiral Pattern here.

What it fits:

Useful TIPS:

1. PLA works fine for this model.
2. Make sure your printer has the extrusion multiplier correctly calibrated.  If the nozzle over extrudes, it may make the cap not to spin freely.
3. If you encounter the above issue, you can easily adjust down the extrusion multiplier around 0.5-1% (for both parts) to eliminate any binding - it only needs a little bit of clearance.
4. For the smoothest operation (not required), apply some paraffin wax to the rim of the body that fits with the cap, assemble and spin the assembly freely a few times to distribute the wax, then insert the tape measure to be wound.
