Hi
Anyone know where I can get large used wooden cable drums/reels.

Thanks

Winster

go to any electrical wholesalers or a structured cabling companies and you will get some there .
also ask at any of the large esb sub-stations or down at esb poolbeg . also worth it to ask the eircom , kn networking and upc lads working on installing fibre optic cable along roof tops the sides of motorways and roadsided

Hi

Thanks for the reply. Off to try the local electrical wholesalers now.

Cheers

i got a large 5 foot diameter wooden cable drum from eircom when they were installing the fibre optic cable and multicore cables underground out near ebay a few months ago . they gladly gave me the empty drum . they had a much bigger 7 foot diameter drum but it was a tad too large for my needs .
