An electronic component supply apparatus (1) includes a reel apparatus (2) and a tape processing apparatus (3). The reel apparatus (2) has a tape reel (8) with a component stored tape (100) wound thereon, the component stored tape (100) having electronic components (105) stored therein. The tape processing apparatus (3) has an electronic component exposure unit (18) that exposes the electronic components (105), that are stored in the component stored tape fed from the reel apparatus (2), so as to be taken out from the component stored tape. The reel apparatus (2) is detachable from the tape processing apparatus (3).

Fishing line dispensing apparatuses for loading fishing line onto a reel, can include a base operable to hold a spool of fishing line, a cap detachably associated with at least a portion of the base, and one or more securing elements coupled to the base. The securing elements can be operable to releasably secure the base to a shaft of a fishing rod. The base of a fishing line dispensing apparatus can additionally include a spool retention surface disposed at a bottom end of the base and a sidewall connected to and extending in a substantially orthogonal direction away from the spool retention surface.

A string dispensing assembly is provided comprising a housing having opposed first and second housing ends that define first and second housing openings that lead to a housing interior in which a string supply is stored. A first engagement support member extends outwardly from the housing and has opposed convex and concave sides that extend to an engagement tab. The engagement tab is folded in on itself in such a way that the engagement tab faces the concave side of the first support member. End and feed caps close the second and first openings and a string from the string supply extends through the first housing opening and abuts the housing and feed cap. The engagement tab is adapted to be secured to a main runner folded portion of a first wall angle thus securing the housing, and the string is for aligning and squaring purposes.
