Parts

Dimensions and assembly

9 designs, 14 PLA pieces. Spring and tape are references, not printable parts. Print each part separately; do not print the assembly as one fused object.

Physical fit, printed retainer strength, spring force, reed fatigue, tape sealing and actual damping are unverified. Motion is a geometric preview, not a force simulation.
