I liked Jerint's design but only had 12x2mm magnets. So I redesigned it from the ground up to use this size of magnet as well as to incorporate a magnet to hold the tape and to hold a small winding handle. In both cases the magnets are used as a bearing surface to make the rotation smoother. This design needs 6 of the 12x2mm magnets. 1 for each half, and 3 for the handle. I designed the handle so you can glue one magnet inset into the hole, so that the two magnets in the handle will recess a bit to counter the shearing forces.
