This was designed for the transducer cable for a fish finder while ice fishing. It could have other uses beyond that.

Description

PDF

This cable stop is sized to fit the ice transducer cable for the Lowrance Hook series fish finders.  However, the part can be resized to fit your needs.  Two copies of the part are needed and are assembled with two screws.  For the unedited design, two ½ inch - No. 8 screws are needed.  I expect the design (resized) might be suitable for electrical cord reels with larger hardware, but obviously not for heavy duty winch applications.

The Fusion 360 model has 4 main parameters to control the sizing:

NameDescriptionTipsDefault Value (mm)
CableDiaDiameter of cableSimply measure the thickness of the cable you are using.  This value will adjust the shape of the entire body.4
ScrewHeadDiaDiameter of screw head openingMeasure the head of the screw and add a little extra to ensure and easy fit.9
ScrewInnerThreadHoleDiaDiameter of hole for the side the screw threads grab intoUse the diameter of the shaft of the screw between the screw threads.  Go a little larger than that to ensure you don't crack the part.3.4
