Sal it sure is a beauty.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

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

Thanks guys!
Besides the small adjustment here and there, the two piece frame went together better than any custom frames I've ever worked on, even better than Accurate. The kit is machined to perfection and bring me to this question:
Tom, did you have anything to do with this frame?

Sal, Amazing job as usual.  I was wondering if Bryan or Aaron know who manufactured these frames or anyone else?
Also, do you think your gold one of a kind was difficult to put together because it was possibly a prototype to the black ones Bryan mentioned? Meaning the tolerances weren't worked out just yet?
I think it's really cool how well you showcase all of our members talent in your reels.  That makes them even more special.
Beauty of a reel and job well done.

Thanks Dom!
It is normal having to do minor adjustment, when putting together a reel with custom parts made from different sources.
I didn't want to knock Tiburon or Accurate, they been putting out some quality product. On this particular frame, I haven't noticed any misalignment anywhere, I check them really close. Not that it would matter, I just wanted to mention that I was impressed with the machining, reminded me of Tom's custom reel ;D.
One thing I wasn't crazy about, the way the bolts hold the seat. I will change those when I get a chance, i'm thinking something as these in ss:  http://images2.mcmaster.com/mva/Contents/gfx/large/92670a826p1-b01l.png?ver=1395224586

Isn't somebody working on a two piece 113h frame with integral left side plate and and machined right side plate?  I got on the list for one should be a similar reel to this just smaller.

Not that I know of, but I've been thinking about it for Newells because I may need to make a frame as well to match the side plate design.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D
