Ikea Tape Measure Holder

thingiverse

Very small tape measure holder for Ikeas free paper tape measures. It's obviously not as good as a real tape measure but it's very small, cheap and a quick print. Update: v2 is a keychain version that has a bit better fit. Use v2 stl files for the keychain. Assembly: Roll the paper strip(tape measure) a little bit more then one lap around the bottom structure part. Put on the band tightener so that the tape measure goes through the opening on the side. The measuring tape should now sit pretty tight. Put on the shell so once again the tape goes through the opening on the side. Lastly friction fit the top lid on the top of the bottom structure part. It should be pretty tight. If it isnt you might have to use a little bit of glue. Grab the shell part with your fingers and start rolling on the bottom structure which have textured/spiky sides to roll up the tape.
