Spool for flat ethernet cables. The two halves fit in and lock together snugly for a fairly stiff spool. The snap-in drill winding core has a hole for a ¼ inch hex bit so you can wind cable very quickly. Then you can keep the cable in place with the printed clips. My cable is 7.1mm wide and 1.7mm thick. Smaller should be fine, but if yours is signficantly larger, this might not work. Both ends of the cable can remain out and usable so that you don't have to unspool the whole thing to use it. Designed so that there are no sharp 90 degree bends of the cable! Three sizes provided, large size (210mm diameter) fits a 50 foot cable pretty nicely. Small size (160mm diameter) fits a 25 foot cable with room to spare. Extra large size (235mm diameter) may be able to fit 75-100 foot cables, depending on the cable thickness. If you need other sizes or have issues with the tolerances, let me know and I'm happy to modify the model. Locking mechanism uses xavierasx's Bayonet Lock Connecto
