BX-500N MeLBar Andros 5NIIa MeLBar  and my 1st home made lead free pipe jig

looks great brother....what did you use instead of lead for your pipe jig?   bill
It may not be very productive,
but it's sure going to be interesting!

balls for bearings, looking at the photo it's on the right side.

David Hall

Very nice, the balls probably make some extra noise when you bounce the jig, I hear it really gets the attention of long cod.  I might have to give this a try myself.

yes i made it to rattle by not filling it to the rim...

Bryan Young

Those are some big bearings. I ought to try that. I've been meaning too do that.  I wonder is using different sizes and types would make a difference.
: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

David, please call me when you will make more. I would love to see how you make them first hand.
