Drill Driven Rope / Cord Winder Reuse Spools V2

This is an update to my previous version: HERE

Same dimensions and concept - but made following modifications:
1) Strengthened the channel for the drill attachment hole by making it longer and reinforced.  

2) The handle and top spool have notches so the fit is more secure.

3) The top spool's handle channel is also longer so it is more secure.

4) Added modifiers so the parts that need a bit more strength have more wall loops.

Listing description from original:

Turn your empty filament spools into useful rope or cord holders! Even works with Christmas Lights!
This simple yet powerful attachment lets you wind rope, paracord, twine, or extension cords neatly using a standard power drill. Designed for quick winding and reuse of old spools, it’s a must-have for any 3D printer workspace or garage.

 

⚙️ Features

• ♻️ Reuse Your Spools: Fits most standard filament spools (Bambu, Prusament, etc.)
• 🔩 Drill Ready: Attaches to any drill with a ¼″ hex bit for fast winding
• 💪 Optional Handle: Print the included handle add-on for manual winding or storage
• 🧶 Multi-Purpose: Perfect for rope, paracord, string lights, extension cords, etc
• 🧠 Smart Design: Lightweight, strong geometry for easy printing and minimal material use

🧩 Assembly

1. Screw the 2 halves together through the center of the empty spool.
2. Insert the hex bit into the smaller winding hole.  It will be a tight fit and might require some extra juice.
3. Start winding! Keep tension steady for even layers.
4. When finished - unscrew the sections and store the handle / key inside!
