Jim, At the plant, we have shelves on the wall behind the pianos in the stringing room. The shelves have sections (about 10 inches tall) of Sono-tube concrete casting forms. Like used for pillars, posts, and cat houses. About 15" dia. In the section of tube, is a wooden wheel with a few upright dowels. A notch in the side of the tube allows the wire to spool out, while the wheel rotates in the tube. Snap-on pipe insulation protects the rim of the piano as the wire is dragged off the shelf to be used. No, I didn't invent it, but I think it's slick! =09 later, Guy =09 =09 At 09:08 PM 11/8/2005 -0700, you wrote: =09 =09 =09 List, =09 =20 =09 Do any of you have a good container or method to store and easily use piano wire in the large rolls? I m also hoping that I can figure out a way to adapt it with all my new Pure Sound stainless wire. The rolls are about 17 inches diameter. =09 =20 =09 It seems I read something about this years ago but I couldn t find anything on the archives. I recall something that it had an arm with a sort of brake thingee too. The container is the part I can t visualize. Having 15 huge boxes around would work, but there s got to be a better way. (I ve always just set the roll on a blanket on the plate.) =09 =20 =09 Thanks, =09 Jim Busby BYU =09 =20 =09 =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
