Cortez Classic Jigmaster

Wow Ted!!
I wasn't sure how I felt about those but I've been swayed...that blue jigmaster is beautiful, awesome job as always! It's cold and stormy here in Honolulu too....it might dip into the low 70s tonight and rain, hahaha!

I have silver red and blue and they're all things of beauty. Hopefully a few other members will post their builds.

  Here is the silver 99 with newell spool and Alan C's eva knob.

Hi guys
Just wondering why they are called jig masters. Do they have a 500 drag?

They are Jigmasters. They are just 99 width.

Wow Ted those levers look awesome. Will they be available?
Need a few. They would look great on any reel.

I'd also be in for several of those levers, Ted. Very nice, and practical for the arthritic thumb. Greg

Tom's 99 Blacken/Blue kit, the 99 SliverBeach and a 500 JM Kit. I was lucky enough to get the 500 from Tom's previous round of kits.

The 24-5000 lever was cut to fit the sleeve with a fitted A.C. 45mm EVA knob installed.

Ted, I hope you'll make some shift levers Black and others colors too ?!!!

Nice work Tom!!

Need more eccentric lever information please. 

  hi Andy, the lever shown is prototype. The one in production will have double O-rings (levers grooved to hold the o rings in place). It will be anodized in red,silver,blue,green,and black. First batch is going to plater this week, so hope to have em redy before Christmas. I'm shooting for $15 price, but will have exact price after anodizing. They will for sure be less than $20 each.

At this stage of inside & out hot-rodding, IMHO it they really are not Jigmasters any more. Gorgeous reels though!

 We can call them Galapagos reels. (Darwin's theory of evolution, Penn reels:)
