I get flat wire on 20" x 6", 12" core wooden spools. Sometimes they
are wound poorly or I need lighter spools for a repair machine. I
remember reading a post years ago about a traverse for winding. I
remember it had a DC motor with a pot to adjust speed but that's
about all. I don't need a PLC to adjust for height on the core or
perfect alignment of the wrap. I found that a basket weave works
great for tangle problems and eliminates having to precision wind.
Any ideas will be highly appreciated!


Can you get hold of a scrapped out electric golf bag buggy.

12V + geared down motor & speed control included.

Just need to fit a crank & you would have what you need.Run it off any
old 12V supply, battery charger etc.




Car windscreen wiper mechanism?
