This rack is designed to help you organize and separate color-mixed wire spools. It holds up to 8 spools, with each spool capable of holding approximately 20 to 30 meters of wire (when using AWG30).
Materials Needed:
- 2mm rod (preferably metal) – 2 pieces, each 108mm in length
- Sponge or similar soft material
- Solid filament – I used PLA, but other rigid filaments should also work
Assembly Instructions:
- Prepare the Spools:
- Print all the parts, including the spools.
- Wind your wires onto the printed spools.
- Add Sponge Padding:
- Cut two small strips of sponge or similar material, measuring 2cm * 2cm * 11cm.
- Glue these strips to the floor or the bar directly behind the spools. This adds friction and prevents wire unwinding when not in use.
- Install the Spools:
- Start with the lower row of spools. Place the spools approximately where they will sit.
- Insert the 2mm metal rod through one side of the rack, carefully mounting each spool onto the rod one at a time. Slide the rod all the way through until it passes through the opposite wall of the rack.
- Ensure the spools are held in place by the sponge strips so that they don’t move on their own.
- Glue the rod to the rack at both ends to prevent it from sliding out.
- Repeat for the upper row.
