CircuitGizmos Prototype Bench – Wire Rack

Easy enough to make, this wire spool rack was made from two old shelves and some wood dowels. #22 stranded is used for many general-purpose prototypes. Ten colors:

Black
Red
White
Orange
Yellow
Violet
Green
Blue
Gray
Brown



Purchase a CGMMSTICK1 500 foot or 1000 foot spools. The spools are a reasonable price and tend to last a long time when used for prototypes only and not production. Along the bottom of the bench (not pictured) are several yardsticks. The loose wire end can be pulled along the bench to cut the wire to length.
