Tangled wires fix

Tangled wires are no epidemic but can be really annoying. It is a very frustrating thing to deal with especially if you are a teacher.That is why we focused on trying to find a solution to this very infuriating thing.








Here is an example of  the wires we're trying to fix. As you can see tangled wires can be a nusansce when dealing with. This picture shows the wires connected to the laptop and power supply.














The tangled wires cause for a messy look and are tiresome when going to use or move. With our solutions these problems will be a thing of the past.














So what can you do about it? We asked a couple of students for solutions and recieved some clever ones like twist ties or even using cardboard but the two that stood out the most was velcro straps and labels.










Velcro straps are very convenient and the average person will more then likely not throw it out. Just strap them to your selected cables and you don't have to worry about tangled wires. They are also pretty cheap too so don't worry about to much about prices.


Here is a picture of a solution we came up with to help combat the tangled wires. Using the velcro straps makes for a cluster free and organize look.
















Labels are also very convenient. Labels help you figure out what wire is used for what and can also prevent the wires from being tangled. You can simply put a label around the wires and there you go.





This is our second solution which can be divided into to models. An at home model which includes a base with cable holders made out of recylced cardboard which we found in class.
