I can=B9t describe it in detail, as it was a couple years ago that I saw a slid= e of it, but perhaps someone else can help. One feature was that the wire dispensed through a small hole drilled in something like 2 x 4 lumber, whic= h served as a brake and as a straightener at the same time. Years ago, I used 5# coils, and created dispensers using plywood =B3plates=B2 on two sides, and 4 to 6 dowels to join them and to hold the wire in. The dowels were glued into one plate, and friction fit into holes in th= e other. I forget if I found it necessary to have some kind of clamping metho= d in addition to the friction fit. The =B3plates=B2 had a hole in the middle so they could rotate on another dowel.
