Two-handled spool rewinding crank

Rewind filament evenly onto another spool

Push the 52 mm hub into an empty spool, wrap a turn of tape round it if the bore is loose, and wind filament from a tangled, cardboard or refill spool with both hands on the grips: an even, steady wind with no crossed turns, which is what causes tangles and failed prints halfway through.
