I needed a reel to wrap up my garden hose, I wanted something quality, not one of the plastic ones that don't make through a winter without leaking.
Got a wheel, some pillow blocks from Princess Auto and a pressure washer reel swivel, pretty simple, the valve stem hole also worked great for mounting the crank handle.
A 20" is a bit big, when I make one for the backyard, I think I will go with a 16 or 17. But it's an idea for anyone who has a spare scrap rim kicking around.
