penn parts

That sure is a top quality wrench that Lee made for you, Mo.

I have seen some little Penn wrenches I think -- as I have gone through old bins from closed tackle shops.

Never paid them much attention -- and just looked through the Penn wrench inventory -- and do not have one of those.  Probably will find a few over the next few years as I get a chance to go through more old storage bins.

Best,

Fred for the benefit of the AT Ohani, I propose we contract Pickers to do a professional documentary on your collection / inventory.  .

Hope you are well and working through the logs.

   What a great haul! I've circled the stamping in the pic below because it appears to be the makings of the elusive Levelmatic wrench I recently had Lee make for me. A rare wrench indeed...I've only seen one sell on fleabay in the past 6 months and it brought a premium.

I just searched through my tools and found this . . .

Thanks, John --

Will get a good dent in the logs this year, before weather kicks in -- plenty to keep for Spring and times when it is not snowing during the Winter.

Right now, I am completing as much as possible by dragging, felling, slicing, bucking, splitting -- as time allows.

We received 3 1/4" of rain out of the last storm -- still a little too warm for snow.  When the snow hits, we will be burning as much slash as we can.

Been getting back somewhat to working on a reel repair backlog -- enjoyable work.

As to the "Pickers" -- we all need to realize that there are likely only a few hundred folks in the world who would appreciate or even know the value of NOS reel parts and reels -- and most of them are on Alan's site already. 

While I have no immediate plans to transition to the Big Pond any time soon -- that is out of my control -- however, when I do -- all will be donated to the AT site for sharing among members.

Aiala's dad is over 100 -- and is currently planning and writing his next 2 novels.  That is what keeps him active -- being inquisitive, busy, and useful.  Good role model.

In the meantime, if someone needs an odd part -- I might be able to help help out, if I have it.

Best,

Fred
