yep, it was one of a plastic canister set.
if you need three feet of 30# fluro,,,,just rip pull it out.
there loaded with about 50 yards each spool.
the piece of wood is epoxied to the side with little holes drilled in it to hold the tension and alternating the spools makes it so no more than one spins at a time

I LOVE! that thing! I have a problem with leader spools all over the place ...pain in the ass. I think you should send that idea into SWS and get a free shimano thunnus spinning reel!!!

do you have a dowel in the center?
