 It's a algae dryer.

I thought maybe so...I recalled you harvesting. Sweet.

Put these (2) Senators together out of 95% new parts from the bins in between working on DQ's and others for clients.

Little 1/0 & 9/0.

Upgraded the drags to CF & SS.

Put a stronger set of post bars on the 1/0.

And both reels got a SS clamp with the ring lock.

That's two reels I can't have enough of.

Will this do?



Have a few photos how I go about making the handles, which I will put up soon.

Wow, great looking reel, that handle makes it pop. I got a couple 3/0 size. I need to get busy
Do what you can with that you have where you are

I reckon that qualifies Chris - nice reel. I've got an epoxy handle blank that looks remarkably similar to that - I'm keen to see how you made yours.

PS Wow , that was quick
It can't be too difficult - a lot of people do it.
