DIY Wire Spinner

How to build a Wire Spinner

I built this wire spinner from scraps
I had laying around the home.
It worked far better than I expected and saved us a ton of money.


Mark out three 800mm x 800mm squares.

I used left over MDF, but marine ply
would be a better option
(especially if it happens to rain while you are fencing).
Picture
Cut out your 3 squares.
Picture
Marked center.

Placed on the role of wire.

Then worked out were I wanted my uprights to go.
Picture
Pick a hole saw bit,
that is going to be larger than
your center pole.
Picture
Then drill out a hole,
in all 3 plates.
Picture
"You can skip this step" if you want....

This just lifts the reel up above the lower arms,
that I attach a bit later on.
Picture
Cut all 8 uprights to just above the wire height.

Pre-drill the square plate
and attach the uprights from underneath.
Picture
Pre-drill and attach the top plate into the uprights.

Attach 4 arms to the top.


Picture
And attach 4 arms to the bottom.

These are to prevent the wire from uncoiling.
and creating a huge coil mess.
Picture
Time to make 3 washers.
Picture
Mark out 3 small squares
and hole saw the middle.
Picture
Give them a good sand.
Picture
Place them on top of the bottom plate.

The 3 washers allow the spinner to take
the path of least resistance.
Picture
Place the Bottom plate were you will be working.
Picture
Carry the reel into potion,
using the center pole as a handle.
Picture
Hammer your center pole
into the ground.
Picture
Re-attach the arms, once it's in position.

"It's to difficult, moving it around
with them attached".
Picture
And you are done.

We ended up not using the arms, and
the wire stayed nice and neat on the reel.
