Hey Crew,
Being a single, 34 year old, fisherman living in downtown Manhattan NYC I have found another great use for Mrs. Dawn's famous Carbontex drag washers. Last night I was engaging in some late night naughtiness with a fine, spirited vixen and could not get the bed to stop squeaking...Damn Bed! Obviously, we had to move our activities elsewhere. Well, this morning I checked out the problem, and there's a tiny gap between the headboard and the platform that I guess over time has stripped the set screw and now rubs (not to pat myself on the back or anything:) I grabbed a metal washer but all were just a fraction to big so I went to the Carbontex...Homerun!!! No more squeaking...look out ladies;) This is a 100% true story...Thanks Dawn your a lifesaver!
Dom
I hope you applied a little Cals grease for smoother performance!
Jigger,
If it needs it I will, but it looks like my wood is just fine ungreased...though, ya never know ;)
Dom
;) ;D
Hmmm....how to market this application??? ;)
Dawn
Dawn,
If you need me to do a commercial for ya...I'll take one for the team ;)
pics. need pics.
Attention, All Vendors! Stand by for orders of washers, greases, and oils!
Dom, stay away from the Johnson-Evinrude grease - it's too sticky. And don't start taking drag washers out of your Senator collection to "fix" things.
Norcal,
Sounds like you may be speaking from experience on the "Johnson Grease." I'll get anew bed before I take 'em outta my collection ;)
Dom
Gee, I never knew how entertaining a reel repair forum could be! LOL :D
Not to highjack the thread here, but I thought since someone mentioned Johnson outboards......

I like where this topic is going ;) That was hillarious and that girl is smokin' hot! I know why they changed the name to Evinrude, LOL!
Dom
What a nasty bunch. I just love it!
seems like an expensive use for carbontex, i fixed mine with a second hand tyre inner tube :P
lol
Hey Dale,
It's not that bad when you figure it into the dinner/drinks bill...on second thought maybe I can write that off as a home improvement (at least my neighbors will agree if not the IRS :D
