The Pink Lady JigMaster 500 is on the building table, these are two trial fittings that I wanted to see what the color combination looks like. This time around I will take photos throughout the build. Starting in a few days. Give me your honest opinion on the color combo.

It looks pretty sweet, silver frame is perfect for those plates!
God, Family and Fishing, what else is there?

Looks great, Joe!

It is similar to a 128GB Bluetooth MP3 player I just picked up for Sue.

The color is called "Rose Gold".

Plus, IMO, anytime a silver frame is paired with great colored plates — it just makes a more long lasting and durable finished product — because scratches will inevitably happen, particularly as saltwater covered line is involved.  And the scratches show less or very little on a silver frame.

You and Ruth will figure out the best combo — but if mine, I think a silver crank blade coupled with a white crank knob would look pretty sharp and coordinated.

Best,

If you keep it like that, though, you'll never get the complaint that you have too many reels!!

That's a pretty sweet build there Joe.

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

If you could do a white marble knob for Ruth I and She would be very very pleased. That reel you did looks very good, and I mist that post. I thought I was the first. ;D I take second to you and be happy.

Ruth is one lucky gal, but I have a feeling it goes both ways.
Nice color choices... playful, lady-like, and no mistaken who's it is. ;)
Looking forward to seeing her complete.
Keep it up,
Dom

Dom: If I could have gotten gold and pink, that would have been Ruth's color hands down ;D..................Joe

Oh and it does go both ways.
