Reel Repair by Alan Tani

Quote from: oldmanjoe on May 10, 2024, 09:20:22 PM  OK I call you Old fashion or Stubborn , I am in the same boat .  I do have gas powered and 110 electric powered blowers , chain saws and hedge trimmers .    I will pick the 110  electric tools  first.    Cheaper to run  , always starts when you hit the trigger .

  I do not know what the cost analyst is to charge up batteries verse using 110 straight .
      Yes it is nice to pick up a battery tool for the quick work .

Most of my smaller stuff like blowers, weedeaters, etc. are electric. It's all those batteries polluting the world that I dislike and am against.

Never did work. The thing is crazy smooth. The main gear is at least a quarter inch thick and surprisingly plastic.

 Yep, just looked at the listing Jason. The listing says those sloppy blades are made in China. That seller only sells stuff made in China. Buyer beware !!

Alan,
One of my recent video messages here "Dropper Loop for yellowtail" has suddenly started showing thousands of views.
It could just be a glitch, but it might possibly indicate some kind of nefarious use being channeled through there.
If you like, I can delete it, and re-post if it would help.
