Description
This crank arm gives a little bit more room and power, especially useful while knitting with the ribber and more or thicker yarn.
I noticed while making a e-wrap selvedge that my old crank arm wasn't able to transmit more power evenly (!) to the cam shell, so I thought, maybe bigger is better in this case ;-).
To compensate its bigger size the counterweight box is also a bit larger.
I printed the handle with 35% infill and with support. See picture how to print best with least amount of support.
The arm works great in combination with my larger crank handle:

Added some more screw holes to the lid to better lock it down, especially if you use some wadding to silence the BBs…
