My dad is an electrician/ electrical engineer so he uses them to wind wires of different gauges on. I used them to prop up work pieces when cutting large wood panels too big for my table saw. Or sanding or painting said panels.
They are pretty sturdy and can be used as makeshift legs/ spacers for when you’re assembling something

Bro I watched stupid videos of people making stupid things with their empty spools, but this is great. My spool finally has a "reason to live". He is really thakfull. So am I.

Great idea! I have some Christmas lights this will be great for.

Perfect application!

Brilliant!. For my guitar plug cables. Awesome ideas. I knew that they have more purposes.

[@Hathathorne]

Ok, but what if I have 30 of them left and I have no more cords left after the first 3.

[@edwinwwilson]

Nice hack. But please make sure not to power whilst lead is spooled.

[@AdvancedGeekery]

Good safety tip. Thanks!

Hey Great video! and awesome production value =) The background music was a bit too loud though it was a bit difficult to hear

[@AdvancedGeekery]

Noted!

[@lucarious4679]

@@AdvancedGeekery bit of a silly think to say but I love how you take the criticism! Great job man!

[@Shaperjet]

I got 400 empty spools, any ideas for them

Watch Hoarders on TV? The dumpster is your friend? Sell them on Etsy as cord winders?

Wind them with copper leads, insert iron core, wire in series to make the world's biggest electromagnet, then take over the world.
