that's brilliant ;-)
not only replacing the plastic shaft, but also now have a metal spool - I worry about the plastic spools..

have a 2052 with the metal shaft, it works well. Also have another with the cracked plastic shaft as a parts reel, now thinking I should make it a Shakes-bender..

If you could post a picture of the cracked part ,i wounder if it is possible to sand and sleeve the part with a stock brass tube from K&S brass.
