So plans got drawn up in my sketchbook and then it was off to the hardware store to see if I could find the parts I wanted for this project.
One hour and $18.50 later, I had nearly everything needed to make a simple winder that is adjustable and folds flat. The following images show it set up and in need of some finishing up of edges but other wise I am very pleased with it's functionality.
Parts list:
- 4 washers
- 1 long bolt (roughly 5x the thickness of my lumber)
- 3 nuts
- 1 3/4" piece of narrow copper tubing
- 1 4" piece copper tubing with end cap (for use as a freely spinning handle)
- glue
- 1 8' length oak
- 1 4' length hardwood dowel
- 2 screws
- assorted hand tools and a drill
