Got the payment Kal, thank you. I will have your parts on their way tomorrow, and will send you the tracking number as soon as I print the shipping label.

Thanks again for your business,

OK, got the parts, built the reel.  Had trouble downloading old camera to new computer... anyway, here it is.
Original Jigmaster, all stock except Carbontex drag washers.


Parts as received.



A vinegar bath and trip to the buffer helped clean them up a bit.



Newly narrowed reel with a newer handle I had on hand.




Original reel weighed 22.7 oz, narrowed weighs 18.4 oz.  The plastic spool vs the chromed one made the most difference.

I think I'm going to like this reel.

Thanks for watching,
Kal
