All dimensions in mm

Latest changes: 

05/01/2025 - Asphalt's corrections to minor print artefacts. Thanks!

22/12/2024 - Make spring slot just a tiny bit taller than the spring.  Corrected “spring_diameter” variable name.  Made “number of slots” text raised.

22/11/2024 - Spring slot made deeper to hold disengaged needles in up position, and shaped to make it easier to insert needles.  Also, now respects enable_ribber_stop flag.

20/11/2024 - Increased nut_diameter from 5mm to 6mm, and reduced nut_height from 3mm to 2.5mm.

19/11/2024 - There is now a ribber-stop option in the configuration.

17/11/2024 - Needle slot depths deepened slightly; Top hook width narrowed slightly; Script tidied.
