upnorthtier 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2022 I see that I'm not the only one this happens to. I have many spool that look just like that. It doesn't bother me anymore. danville wire is the worst for that, every spool does it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandan 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2022 Norm, I heard Charlie Craven say that's how the pros do it. That way they don't have to find the end of the wire every time they need some. 😉 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2022 Veesus wire has a double sided spool that lets you pull wire or thread into slot on the one side to keep control of it. Works quite well but I have a few Ultra that look like that. Just cut off what I think I'll need and let if mess up in drawer for wires. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
