farmer 56 here  ....   once in awhile  the reel gods smile down on us and say lets just prove  the   known  fact  that things just go wrong  all the time ...   serviced  a  newell g-220-f   one of the end caps , stainless steel  with bearing  i wrapped  up  in paper  towel   knowing  that i would  service  the next day.... but lo and behold  when i cleaned up that night  i tossed it in the trash...2 hours before the garbage truck came i rememberd   what i had done.... i wish the grand-kids would have picked a different weekend to visit .... not a pretty picture digging in garbage can...but i dont care found bearing cap... what are the odds of that ever happen in my or your lifetime....
