Universal cable spool storage system

This design is intended to help organise your cable collection so that the right cable can be found quickly. it is heavilyt over engineered for what is actually required but hey why else do you have a 3d printer :) .

I use it for all the various USB and audio periperal devices I have. It beats searching around in a big box each time i need a specific cable.

Limitations

• The design does not work as well with stiff 5mm cables. (Alternative design coming soon) • If you have lots of cables then a different solution is probably preferrable, ie hanging hooks.

Asssembly

A small amount of super glue carefully applied to one side of the mating surface. Apply an aersol activator and place both halves to gether while applying pressure. (Nb. if you don't have superglue and/or an Activator spray i storngly recommend you get some as it will open up a whole new owrld of design and assembly for 3d printing.)

Features

• The two part design allows you to combine to accomodate wire diameter from 2mm to 5mm in 0.5 mm gaps. • Plenty of surface area for labeling • The cable can be used without fully unwinding • Internal void allows hanging on a hook. • Fusion 360 file for custom designs (Mostly parameterised so easy to edit)
