Morning all..

Heading off to work very shortly so any ideas over the next hour greatly appreciated :)

I have a 60m drum of swa that wont fit on my normal spooler. Any clever ideas for a make shift one for the day? Something involving a broom handle I expect :)
 
That looks like quite a small drum......I am surprised it wouldn't fit on a conventional horse! Good idea though.

Was that a stock photo you had or did you rush out to set it up to show HHD - either way Good Job.

Stock photo I had. And cheers :) You need to put a saddle or summat on the conduit to stop the drum fouling on the legs of the conduit bender because of the angle of the vice, so it spins freely. But it works really well, and can cope with pretty big/heavy drums.

Ha ha, I just realised this was happysteve!!lol I thought it was HHD posting his solution, hence my post above about the small SWA drum.lol

Note to self, I must read more carefully!!

lol :) It's a 50m drum, but only 4mm 2 core.
