Maybe should be in the hoarders thread but I've had a bunch parts for a while- some a couple years. Bench time has been scarce for reels- fixing other life necessary things. Black One 5000 blown out to 6000 width and blacked out, smooth as butta with bearings over bushings. 6500C with CT frame, with gunmetal star and Simon Shimonura spool- originals are dang unobtanium. Simon put this spool together for me and tuned it. Great guy to work with. Silver 5500C3 blown out to CT 6500 width with Abu Rocket spool courtesy of Nick and vintage chrome star. Lastly, Rocket FS2 kit in blue.

Do what you can with that you have where you are

Very nice. I still wanna do a rocket build. I'll just stare at yours for now.
Any machine is a smoke machine if you use it wrong enough.

You got some nice builds in there buddy!
There's one small problem with all these beautiful reels lol!
There isn't no darn line on them John lol!
You need to start fishing /casting some of these lol!
Send them to me, I'll test them out for you!
I've definitely noticed, I spend less time fishing and more time playing and acquiring reels lol!
