The original metal washers without ears will be able to fit in this hex gear.http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=7710.msg66164#msg66164 (http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=7710.msg66164#msg66164)
Please note that all these gear set will require SS yoke. I believe that Lee (Keta) or Smooth Drag will be the best source for these SS yoke.

Alan, I'll take 3 sets of the hex gear sets. Bob

Hello Alan,
I would like 2 sets of the HEX gears.
Thanks,
John
California
PS. Alan, you may get a few more orders if you were to also offer a Pinion gear for the Penn 9/0 to go along with the main gear. I would also order two 9/0 pinions.
Hi Alan,
I'll take 2 of which ever you get going. Standard or hex. I REALLY want this to happen. I already bought reels to upgrade to the SS type gears, so I'm wishing these gears to come about. Let us know how close you are to the 80 mark and if need be I will order an additional set just "to have". Maybe that can help with the bottom line?
Bob
I'll take (3) Hex and (1) standard.
By the way, I believe that the machinist could shave a little more off the gear wall so we'll have a true Hexagon.
The 113HN is paper thin at the cutouts and that reel is rated for 30#. If they can take just a little more off, that would be great.
Sal
Alan, I'll take 1 hex & 1 regular. Rudy in Fl.
Alan,
I'm in for 4 standard and 2 hex if you make both, however if you only make one style I'm in for 6.
Thanks again,
Dom

...Guys don't pass this up we may not get this opportunity again anytime soon... might be a one shot deal :o
Is anyone cutting hex drags for these things? I ordered one and have not given any thought to the drags, or do I just take the eared drags and cut to hexagon? Dominick
Ya know, Dominick... I just got a small piece of cf sheet and was gonna cut it, but realized I have no hex metal washers... Sal, What are your plans?
This might be a question for Lee.
Thanks
Dom
No, not yet. The carbon fibers are easy to make, the metal ones are tough.
If these gears do happen, I'm sure they can modify the Hex a bit. I'm still trying to figure out why they decided to leave that much meat on the side wall, These gears have enough space for the stock metal washers
(http://i1318.photobucket.com/albums/t646/pescatore2/hex%20gears/008_zps49b982c4.jpg) (http://s1318.photobucket.com/user/pescatore2/media/hex%20gears/008_zps49b982c4.jpg.html)
Only1/32" needs to come off , this will also give us a perfect Hexagon shape.
The critical part of the gear is at the corners, as you can see from the picture above, the corners don't need to be touched, plenty of room there.
(http://i1318.photobucket.com/albums/t646/pescatore2/hex%20gears/004_zpsccbd2714.jpg) (http://s1318.photobucket.com/user/pescatore2/media/hex%20gears/004_zpsccbd2714.jpg.html)
By the way, the washers that I used on the reel that I tested with the Hex gear, were the 1.30mm carbon fiber washers.
The metal washers were the thick type.
These reels with all of the other upgrades available will stop anything.
Sal
Sorry Dom, we must have been typing at the same time. The only washers you'll need to make are the Hex out of carbon fiber, the metal washers are stock. Well, I'm sure they will be, there is no need for us to customize the metal washers if the machinist opens the gear up just a hair more.
Wow - great work lads.
Sal,
I haven't tried to put the metal washers in yet. So, you're saying the stock metal washers won't fit in the hex we have now?
How do we counter this issue in the meantime? ... I wanna get these puppies catching fish!
Thanks
Dom

Dominick, I just reread your question from last night, it was kind of late.
Here is how the hexagonal set up works:
The Hexagonal Carbon Fiber washers are stationary and the keyed metal washers rotate between them to create drag. The eared washers are gone, no need for them anymore.
Once you make one hexagonal carbon fiber washer and it is fitting nicely, keep that one as a template.
When making some more, hold that washer over a sheet of Carbon Fiber and cut around with scissors, following the shape.
Don't forget not to use the template when assembling the reel, it will make the job much easier for the next time.
I will have the Hex main gear modified to fit the original drag metal washer without the ears. I am going to order a set from Scott and send it to my resource.
Alan,
Sign me up for one set in the original format.
New Hampshire
Thanks!
Alan, I hope everyone takes advantage of this opportunity. Where else will you be able to get gears like these? Look at the Accurate and Newell gears and see what they cost now. BTW, I prefer the hex but I'll take the original if only those are made. Either way I'm in for the 3 sets I posted earlier. Bob
Hi Alan, I would like one set of the original flavor. Let me know when you are ready for payment.
Thanks,

I'm in for at least one set of hex, maybe as many as three. Just to have some around if I decide to build more in the future. ;)

i'll take 1 hex and 1 original. let me know when/where to send payment. thanks Alan.
steve@crabbers.org.
Wow, these look great and I'm very interested... I'm not too late to get in on these am I?
You can count me in for one set of Original.
chilerelleno@comcast.net
I just need a few things set straight to know what I'll need to make them work.
1) If I get the Standard, I can use the normal drag stack?
2) If I get the Hexagonal, I need to cut new carbon drags?
3) Do I need a SS gear sleeve too?
4) Will I need to worry about any problems between steel and brass parts?

I just need a few things set straight to know what I'll need to make them work.
1) If I get the Standard, I can use the normal drag stack? That is correct.
2) If I get the Hexagonal, I need to cut new carbon drags? That is correct
3) Do I need a SS gear sleeve too? That will be a great upgrade, but you can wait until you need to replace the sleeve if the gear set is in standard version. For Hex, I would recommend changing to SS sleeve because you can produce more drag power than standard
4) Will I need to worry about any problems between steel and brass parts? That should not be a problem.
@ Black Pearl ^^^
