The harness lugs look really nice, are they Tom's handiwork too?
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Sal,
That is one great looking reel! I love my green Squidder, but that black and blue combo looks awesome😀
Does it have a name yet? ...."Bruiser", maybe...lol
Brett
Bett, bruiser might be a great mane for this reel :)

Very nice piece Sal. Love the blue/black combo!

Me too Lou, black and Blue is a good combination.

Beautiful!
I love how the curves of the handle flow with it so well!
Me too Chad, I gave Adam a little help on the design in the beginning.That handle is 3/16" in thickness, I don't believe it would give up.

Yes Lee, those are from Tom. I forgot to mention and I'm not sure how Tom did it to make it work, the eccentric and spring is so easy to install, even a 5 year old could do it. I didn't think it would work from it going in so easily, but its doing its job nicely.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

It suits the black and blue color scheme   :)

It can't be too difficult - a lot of people do it.

Wow, looks fantastic, I have a bunch of 9/0 parts waiting for sideplates.
What are the chances of gettign this premade to allow for double dogs to avoid having to grind the sideplate?
