Diy Hose Reel

A DIY hose reel is a great way to keep your garden hose organized and prevent it from kinking. It is also a good way to save space in your yard. To make a DIY hose reel, you will need a few basic materials, such as a wooden dowel, plywood, and screws. You will also need a hose reel axle, which can be purchased at most hardware stores.

To begin, cut the wooden dowel to the desired length of your hose reel. Then, cut two pieces of plywood to the same length. These pieces will serve as the sides of your hose reel.

Next, drill a hole in the center of each piece of plywood. The hole should be large enough to fit the hose reel axle. Then, assemble the side pieces and the dowel using screws.

Once the side pieces and dowel are assembled, you need to attach the hose reel axle. The axle should be inserted through the holes in the side pieces and the dowel. Then, secure the axle in place with screws or nuts.

Finally, you need to attach a hose reel handle. The handle can be made from a variety of materials, such as wood, metal, or plastic. Simply attach the handle to the dowel using screws.

Once your DIY hose reel is complete, you can attach your garden hose to it. To do this, simply connect the female end of the hose to the hose reel axle. Then, wind the hose around the dowel.

To use your DIY hose reel, simply unwind the hose from the dowel. When you are finished using the hose, simply wind it back up on the dowel.
