Despite not having gotten into the dead via distribution of tapes like so many did, I recognize the immense importance of this invention on the Grateful Dead fan culture. The proliferation of cassette tapes the band simply would not have been able to reach the wide audience it has.
Such an elegant design, I wonder if it was coincidence or intentional to have a yellow pencil be the perfect size to wind them.

Yep, but stop winding when they hard to wind. Then hope and prey for the best. Worst ever is getting it eaten by a shitty player
