Kapton Tape Dispenser Conversion

(Sorry about the image, it's imported from Thingiverse and I'm too lazy to reupload)

I bought a set of Kapton tape and I wanted a dispenser. I found an old one used for masking tape and printed out these things that match the thicknesses of the tape rolls. It uses a 1/8th inch steel rod as the central pivot.
