Big turntable from repurpose.

The electrician at work tossed this large wooden wire spool in the dump.
Pretty cool, so I grabbed it out without any immediate intentions for it.

So... since I didn’t have one, I made a big spinner from it.
I took the center pillar off/out, then purchased a large lazy Susan bearing.
It’s about 22” diameter.
works great!
Spring well.......well enough.
Man! It’s Sooo loud!
love it.

cost -20$

Nice! Good way to make use of the spool. I want to get some huge ones, like for 1000ft 500kcmil or something, and use them in the garden.

Nicely done....and this does a rotation job well I imagine.
