Title: D.A.M. Quick Factory
Post by: foakes on December 04, 2017, 10:27:38 PM
This is how I build reels from assorted parts --

Start with a rough old donor reel --

Completely disassemble -- clean all parts, polish all parts, discard worn parts.

Add equal measures of NOS parts, cleaners, solvents, dish soap, polishers, paint touch up, and a little experience.

This is how they come out the other end of the assembly line.

Doing Quicks, Mitchells, and Penns this week.

Best,

Fred

That little 110 looks better than anything on the shelves at Cabela's.

...& it's better than most anything in it's class on the shelves at Cabela's that are littered with use & toss away variants of reels.... Jeff
