This printer super well on my Bambu P1S. I printed at .16mm layer height and 15% infill with 3 walls. Excellent design.

This has to be one of the best things I have ever printed. It keeps a cable of any size with ease and rolls up back into its case with a simple twist. This is a print-in-place, which makes the whole process even easier.

Great organizer; the print turned out perfectly. I printed at about 100 mm/s, with a print time of about 2 hours and 30 minutes and a layer height of 0.16 mm. I’ll definitely print it again.

It is a very good, functional print. Highly recommended to print a few for your personal use.

A perfect 3D print.

I'd never buy one of these, but I have printed 5 (so far).

very nice model

This is a print in place model with no assembly. I printed the LARGE model at 15% infill with 0.30mm layers out of Polymaker Polyterra PLA marble slate grey. The hinge is nice and loose as is the center. I used a 4mm cable for the test. As I rotated, the cable folded to a 10mm radius on both sides of spindle. The minimum safe bending radius of USB cable is 10 times the cable diameter (40mm radius) so print at your own risk. The spindle kept slipping back trying to unwind. I rotated up to 5 feet 5 inches (1.65m) into the closed system and the print broke at a layer line. I found that the cable bends and stresses against outer wall slots. I recommend moving the slot so it is offset from the corner. I tried this with both 3 and 3.5mm cable and could only fill to 6 feet (1.83m). I'm not a fan of the bend radius and the break could have been because of the density I printed at. If I were to make this again, I'd probably print it at an angle to strengthen the final product further. Thank you for uploading the model.

Really cool

Printed from PLA. The lid is loose once cable is spinned inside. Not very practical device.
