MICRO - 13" dia. $140.00 plus shipping
Thread Storage Carousel
Capacity of 180 Spools & 90 Bobbins
Overall dimensions: 13" diameter x 24" tall and weighs about 12 lbs.
This is the smallest version that I call the Micro. It's small and compact for those who do not need a vast amount of storage and limited counter space.
Each shelf holds 30 spools of thread for a total of 180 spools, and has separate storage for 90 bobbins that sits on top, but can be removed for easy access. The slot width remains the same (3”) as the Mini and Maxi Carousel for easy access of the lower stored thread. The shelf above the stored spool of thread that you are retrieving is simply rotated until the access slot is above the spool of thread you are wanting, and you can then reach in to retrieve. This is the same process to re-store your spool of thread.
Each shelf measures 13" OD diameter, 8" smaller than the original MAXI (large), and holds 30 spools per shelf, for a total capacity of 180 spools. So it has vast smaller footprint than the MAXI, and 4" smaller than the MINI. This is great for those who do not need a lot of storage or have a smaller work area. All of the other storage spacing is identical as the larger version, which has the spacing between dowel spindles 2.0" inches, with a clearance height of approximately 3-1/16". The photos show the MICRO loaded with mini spools (550m). These spools measure approximately 1-3/4" base, with a height of 2-1/4". The spacing of 2.0 inches on the dowel pins will allow for any spool with a base of 2.0" inches or less, and maximum height of 3" tall. At the maximum height of 3” spool, this allows approximately 1/16" of clearance so the shelves spin easily.
The shelves are made of 1/4" MDF material, and the base is made from solid wood, with a 1/2" steel center support rod and 3" spacers between each shelf. The top shelves have a 3" inch wide access slot for reaching in to retrieve and re-position the spools.
