Yeah it's funny I never looked for one until you asked, but there don't seem to be a lot of options for motorized reel winders of that size. It's kind of a white whale.
Maybe a motorized rotating machine in your workplace might create OSHA issues for you to worry about, and maybe you wouldn't want one for that reason anyway. I did see this thing: https://vogelerinnovations.com/product/reelfast-electric-fence-reel/ The spools look a tad on the small side, but maybe. -----Original Message----- From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> On Behalf Of Nate Burke Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2023 10:55 AM To: Animal Farm <af@af.afmug.com> Subject: [AFMUG] Cable Spooler I'm sure something exists, but I can't find the right term. Is there a cheap/easy way of spooling up small cable spools. 12"-18" diameter wooden spools. I was thinking like a small tire or something in a drill to hold against the edge of the spool to spin it while another person guides the wire on the spool. Is something like this for sale? I found lots of fishing line spoolers, but they are small. And a 'Drill wheel' Gives me a bunch of sanding tools. I'm guessing I just haven't thought of the right term to search for yet. I've had multiple boxes of Shireen DC-1030 cable that have come with Broken cardboard spools in the box, and we have to re-spool the entire box onto a new spool by hand. Spinning the wooden spool by hand for a thousand rotations is very tiring. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
