Hi everyone,
Please, advise me not expensive and compact hose reel. What do you use? I am a beginner, so I buy the equipment gradually. I use Lincoln welder.
Thanks in advance.
General welding questions that dont fit in TIG, MIG, Stick, or Certification etc.

Bump,
I’m just a hobbyist that is why I ask such questions. I just want to buy basic accessories and equipment and not want to waste money on unnecessary things. Look at this https://www.mrosupply.com/hydraulics-an ... _coxreels/
But the price is expensive. Or to order the cheapest reel on ebay?

I've never owned a hose reel, nor have I ever worked in a shop that had one. I just wrap the hoses up on the bottle cart, or build an arm for them to coil over in the shop. On a truck an old wheel can be welded or bolted up to hold them. I figure save the two hundred bucks and apply it toward more equipment or supplies...or beer.

I've also used the plastic spool that's left over after all the MIG wire is gone.ldbtx wrote:I've never owned a hose reel, nor have I ever worked in a shop that had one.

We have a brand called re-coila. We don't use them much any more, but they seemed pretty good when we used them for oxy/lpg
