Roberto wasn't sure how to post pics -- but he sure did a great job on this old 6/0 Senator...

Fred,
I got the side plate on the reel . I am attaching photos, I think I know how to do them on email but asking to post them on AT is above my capabilities.
I am really happy I got this reel done. I honestly don't know now what to do with it because it came out too nice to go back on an electric kite reel.
I wrote Randy Pauly, who helped me with an Accurate frame for a 113H, that its bad enough that I have the fishing disease and I don't need to add the "reel virus". Anyway, its been a lot of fun!  One of the largest tackle shops here just announced that they would no longer repair reels or carry parts. I guess I better learn how to maintain  my own reels.
Thank you for all your help.
Best

Very good job Roberto, looks like you're well on your way.

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

Bryan Young

That's a beauty Roberto.

Next...  Just kidding.

: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
