Handling Coils Of Wire?

[odinohi]

This has probably been discussed before, but I havent figured out how to search on my phone. I recently started making bottom bouncers and spreaders. I have coils of wire of all sizes from 8"-22". What is the best way to handle these coils without having a disaster?

Zip ties. Keep them tight as possible.

"Zip ties. Keep them tight as possible."

I mean to let the wire off the coil to cut in pieces. I have been having my wife hold the coils while I cut pieces. She isnt always around when I need to cut.

Zip ties. Peel the wire off the coil and tighten the tie every time you go through it. If you only peel off what you need, the weight of the coil will hold it so you can cut. 

 

Another tip, use a dremel and a cutting wheel for cutting 050+. A heck of a lot easier than trying to snip it.

Thanks Kevin, I'll give it a try when I get home.
