here's a little thing i made whilst i was messing around.

my idea was to create a 'cotton reel' that is on a spring so that you can pull string from it, and when you loosen your string, it rolls back up.

take a look
height=700 width=700

updated it so it's smoother when you roll over it - my friend complained :(

That is really awesome.

Can't think of any useful applications... but that is awesome nonetheless.
