Title: Island Rocket Reels
Post by: Tightlines667 on December 14, 2015, 10:54:15 PM
There is a local guy here on Oahu that has been producing some pretty cool custom fabricated reel parts (side plates, frames, handle arms, and knobs) mostly for Newells.  Thought I'd share his site here...

I particularly like the Accurate-inspired 6 shooter Solid Aluminum (edited) Ti ball knobs.

If nothing else, check out the picture gallery..

That's Brock. I've got some of his stuff posted here somewhere.

Yes..
yes he does.

Brock does out of Ti. All of his parts are one offs. Ask him about doing a production run and he declined. He is not set up for production.

Nice stuff! I like those handles...but those side plates can't hold a candle to Tom's side plates.
Thanks for showing us what's out there... if it's possible I appreciate having Tom on our side even more now.
