Abstract:

A method and apparatus for storing and carrying cable, more particularly, insulated electrical cable having male and female terminals, so that a desired length is readily accessible for unwinding or rewinding at either end without disturbing the other end. The present invention comprises a rectangular frame, having three parallel, colinear bars rigidly held in symmetrical, spaced-apart relation by a pair of symmetrically-spaced transversely disposed rungs. The combination may also include a carrying handle and attachment for self-standing. The cable is secured to the middle portion of the central bar, and is wrapped from opposite ends about the upper and lower sections of the rungs, respectively, so that each of the ends is accessible for unwinding to a desired length.
