Abstract: A computer tape reel carrying and storage device having just ten parts, all of which are paired identically. Most of the parts are of plastic and the identical pairs be molded in the same mold. The parts may easily be assembled to form a cylindrical body having a flange at its lower end and a movable handle at its upper end. The handle moves from a retracted position for loading or unloading to an extended position for locking the reels in place and facilitating the transport of the device and reels.
