⚠️ Cable Compatibility

  • For the best results, use soft braided cables, such as Apple charging cables.

  • Soft rubber cables may also work, but stiff cables are not recommended, as they may not retract reliably.

🌀 Spiral Spring Material For reliable performance, print the spiral spring in:

  • ABS

  • ASA

  • PA (Nylon)

  • or another high-toughness material

PLA and PETG can work, but they gradually lose spring force due to creep and stress relaxation, reducing retraction performance over time.

📐 Why is it this size?

The organizer measures 91 × 25 mm because a 3D printed plastic spring requires a larger diameter than a metal spring to store enough energy for reliable retraction.

⚠️ Important

Please make sure you use both the correct spring material and a compatible cable. These two factors are essential for the organizer to work reliably
