Andrew,
Welcome aboard. There are plenty of people on this site willing to help, so no worries! I would suggest your first move be to scan the site and read the posts about reels you own, and may be interested in servicing....tons of info and tutorials! I'm new here also, and haved learned a great deal from them. Enjoy

Welcome, Andy.  Just grab an old jigmaster and a Penn screwdriver/wrench, and follow Alan's jigmaster tutorial. After you've taken it apart and put it together a few times, you'll start to catch on to how they work.
