Flat Crank handle for Ratchet strap reel (clicky assembly)
Description
PDFThe original crank is made out of three parts and they have to be assembled with a screw. This is overly complicated for a simple organizer AND it is quite bulky. In my case it wouldn't fit in the tiny compartment of my car with the original handle.
This new and very simple version the whole assembly is flatter and easier to print.

BIGGER straps?
Not necessary anymore for V2
The original ratchet-strap-reel-thingi was a bit too small for my 5m heavy-duty strap. I printed the all the files with 120% size in x- and y-dimensions while leaving the z-dimension at 100%:
