Description

PDF

This 3D printable model is a remix of a classic design for a magnetic tape measure holder. It features a fabric tape measure holder secured with 6x3mm magnets to prevent friction and wear. The design uses 4 magnets, two to hold the tape and two to close the holder. The model has been improved with added fillets, chamfers, and dimensional adjustments for better functionality and appearance. Two versions are included: one for tapes up to 17.50mm wide and another for tapes up to 20mm wide.
