About this print
A compact cable winder designed to coil and store short cables such as USB leads, keeping them neatly wound and easy to carry. The print-in-place design means it arrives ready to use with no assembly required. PLA is a suitable choice for this kind of everyday organiser, offering sufficient rigidity to hold the wound cable in place without adding unnecessary bulk.

A portable cable organizer which is setup as an easy print-in-place and includes a knob on the side for conveniently winding up the cable when you're ready to pack it away.
This model is an easy print that requires no supports, and three different sizes are provided to accommodate cables of different lengths. If you're not sure which to choose, I'd recommend starting with the “medium” size.
After printing, you'll want to place the cable within the groove at its halfway point, close the lid (which is intentionally designed to close tightly), wind up the cord clockwise using the handle, and then extend by simply grabbing the cable by both ends.
Update 2023-09-06:
Alternative smooth-sided versions of all three sizes have now been added, and also the handle design was slightly adjusted to add a small fillet and chamfer to decrease the bridge distance. Here's a close-up picture of the updated handle on the knurled and smooth-sided versions:
Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
