Rewind tables designed for projection are typically vertically oriented, and are designed to work with film mounted on [[reels]], with either a [[split reel]] or [[trailer flange|flange]] required to rewind film mounted on [[core|cores]]. Rewinds manufactured for film editing may employ a multi-gang design, in which multiple reels are mounted on the same spindle. Inspection tables designed for archival use are often horizontally oriented '''flatbeds''' designed to work with film mounted on cores. In the platter era, some theaters replaced their rewind tables with make-up tables (MUTs) that could rewind film reel-to-reel in addition to spooling to and from the platter. | Rewind tables designed for projection are typically vertically oriented, and are designed to work with film mounted on [[reels]], with either a [[split reel]] or [[trailer flange|flange]] required to rewind film mounted on [[core|cores]].

Vertical rewind tables may have spindles that face the operator (ex., Kelmar tables) or face away from the operator (ex., any hand-crank rewind). The spindles may have clips that fold up to retain the reel on the shaft, or they may be angled so that the reel is kept on the spindle by gravity. | Vertical rewind tables may have spindles that face the operator (ex., Kelmar tables) or face away from the operator (ex., any hand-crank rewind).

Some rewinds are designed for use with a single [[film gauges|film gauge]] and reel size, while others can be used for a variety of gauges and reel sizes. Some rewinds have interchangeable spindles, while others use a single spindle with adjustable drive pins to accommodate different reel styles. | Some rewinds are designed for use with a single [[film gauges|film gauge]] and reel size, while others can be used for a variety of gauges and reel sizes.
