Smart resistor colour wheel

 

resistor colour wheel

Probably you are tired of those resistor colour tables and small programs where you must trace the resistor value by colours. Rob got an idea to make it simpler, so he constructed a very simple paper wheel construction where you can turn them to match colors of resistor bands. Once colors are matched resistor value is right here – on the wheel itself. So download, print and assemble this simple resistor colour wheel project that actually fits in your pocket.
