Solid Core Hookup Wire Spool

thingiverse

I needed a hookup wire spool because I bought an assortment of loose differently colored wires for use with a breadboard. It's a pain to find the end every time you need to use it, and storing it quickly results in a drawer full of tangled wire! ## Printing * Print with minimum 3 perimeters/walls * Used approx 30g of filament with my settings ## How to use To wind your wire on to the spool, remove any cable ties and carefully untangle the wire. (You may need to twist the wire in the opposite direction to any tangles to remove any kinks) Once all the kinks are gone and you have a nice straight length of wire, pinch it between some cloth and pull it through in order to smooth it out nicely. Poke one end of the wire through the hole and tie a knot. Pull the wire so it is under some tension, then wind it around the spool. Once you get to the end, wrap the wire around one of the end pegs so it doesn't come unwound. --- I hope it helps you out!
