Abstract
A material dispenser system for efficiently dispensing elongate material. The material dispenser system includes a first prong and a second prong resiliently connected by a base in a substantially U-shaped structure. The prongs each have a shoulder and a jaw that receive a spool between thereof. To load a spool, the user compresses the handles of the prongs thereby allowing insertion of the distal portions of the prongs through the core of the spool. To dispense material from the spool, the user compresses the handles of the prongs thereby allowing free rotation of the spool upon the prongs. If the user desires tension within the elongate material being dispenses, the handles are allowed to expand slightly so that the prongs frictionally engage the core of the spool. When it is desired not to have elongate material dispensed, the user allows the prongs to expand outwardly thereby frictionally engaging the core of the spool to prevent rotation of the spool.
