Feature Project: Wire Spool Rack

I often dabble in electronics and I have many spools of wire that I uses. Different colors and gauges all help keep a project organized. The spools used to be stored in a drawer but that was a clumsy method of organization. They would often get mixed up and strewn all over the workbench. To remedy the problem, I created a spool holder to hold the spools.

The base design is modular. An additional side can be added onto the rack at any point. Cutting the project twice yields enough parts for 3 bays. We used 1/8″ plywood for our rack, but since that can be rather hard to find in the US hardboard is another great option.
