and a good deal at that price, too!  I just have to pause on working on the reels and start building some rods to catch up.

Alan,
   I'm sure these babies are gonna work fantastic. However, just like the 112h and 114h gears I can't put my stamp on 'em until I test 'em on the water.  Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to wait until spring for the testing :(
Even the best companies make a flub here and there... ask every car company with a recall.  Hey, for that matter ask our Chief (Alan T), as the 113h gear sleeve holes (where the pin goes) had been off a teeny.
After all fishing reels are quite precise tools.
One thing I can say is the 113h gears are crazy good!
Can't wait for the testing phase.
Thanks
Dom
PS- I'm loving the bikini, as it really accentuates her curves ;) ;D

Yes, I have four. Got them last week. ;D

Looks good as always Chui! Thank You.
I will be cutting drag washers and getting ready to try them out in a week or two. I finally get some time off. Other than two days of the annual winter tree trimming duty. I will have 10 days to only work on reels. I have waited 4 months to do this. There will be some double dogging, stainless steel sleevin' and custom drag stackin' goin' on! ;D

Chile, give us some details on which drags you went with. Also if you could, let us know what numbers are you're getting at max.
I picked up a 9/0 for $65, I just couldn't let it go.The reel looks almost new and came with the box,
now I don't have to mess with my brand new one that a friend sent me, a little while back.

I already double dogged it and its ready to go, I will be testing the insert from Lee and the washers from Bryan.
I see that most of you guys got your gears, I'm still waiting for mine...and I thought he liked me :-\.

Standard style gear set, not the Hex.
Alan's SS Gear Sleeve with HT-100 washer.
Double SS Dogs, alternating engagement.
SS yoke from Smoothdrag.com
Six stack of HT-100 drags with SS washers.

Don't know if I'll go through the hassle to test the limits of the drag the way you do.
Last time I did that testing my tanked 6/0, I snapped an old Custom Striker rod.

I don't blame you John, I've done that to one of my favorite rods not long ago.

I'll be putting the hex in a 9/0 and a 114HLW. ss sleeve, yoke and double dogs.
I'm also going to put a 7 stack in a different 9/0 with the non hex with Bryan's washers.
I'll be using Eric's .140 for the hex.

You're not alone, Sal... Santa didn't drop off my gears and I thought I was a good boy ::)
I think Alan was set back a bit with the jig master pinion issue or he shipped pony express ;D
I can't wait for these monsters!
