Lou, honestly, I have such a love hate relationship with your creations.  I so love what you do.  Perfection to the T.  Colors are so very stunning.  I hate it that I have to look at your creations from afar...only to be envious until my dying days...

: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

Nice, and the color matches my teeth.
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

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

Thank you all so much for the positive comments. The knobs have evolved and there's a lot of  improvements that have been added in the past year. This particular reel has been dressed a bunch of different ways but consensus at the shop say's this one is the best.

Sal, as far as the polish, It was all done by hand. No buffer. The only problem is it takes a long time and unfortunately a good dose of Ibuprofen to get thru it! I have to keep coming back to it as the old hands are beat.

I've got and interesting one coming down the pike. It's a real eyeballer! Hopefully it will be finished within the next month or so and I'll be able to post it up.

All have a great evening,  ..  Lou
