Welcome fellow prototypers! This communities' purpose is to help others and share functional 3D Printing related information. While other 3D Printing Communities are a good resource, sometimes too many help posts get buried under memes and fluff. This will remain technically focused and keep the fluff removed. Please help your fellow 3D Printer hobbyists as much as you can with their issues! and showcase your functional prints and how you use or created them.

This was remixed from UncleFrankSays version to hold a different brand of electrical tape which had a different inner diameter. If you read his comments on the serration, it's really only cosmetic as it doesn't function very well because electrical tape doesn't tear well. What is nice about this, however, is that it gives you a place to hold the tape while pulling it until it snaps. This means that most of the stretch is on the dispensed piece and not back on the roll. If nothing else, the feature allows for you to more quickly pull the next piece rather than letting it stick back on the roll.

Depending on feedback, I may make the design parametric within Fusion 360.
