I have over a dozen full (25Ft.) and partial coils of wire. For now I have them in a box. Need a good way to store them, but still be able to get at each one when needed. What are others going? Any pics would be supper.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!!

Thanks,
Mike
 
I just leave coils in a box. Just use twist ties to keep the coils separate. Don't let your partner make you toss it. Make them price wire first, and they will see the treasure in your junk.
 
I put hole in the middle of the box and put dowels through it and took some old siding and sanwiched the box together built a little roll around cart that has triangles on 2 opposite side and nothing on the others and you can pull it out easily
 
Some place the spools on rods mounted horizontal with brackets at eye level. The wire is then easy to view and use. Store cutter, wiring tools and terminals nearby.
 
I had mine on a peice of pipe with wooden discs between each color and type of wire. I use a hole saw to cut the discs and then made the center hole bigger so the pipe would go through. The first discs came from installing some toliets and they worked so well I made some more. You could also cut discs with a jig saw.
