Title: Big thanks!

A big massive thanks to Alan for this forum. After receiving some carbontex goodies and cals from Dawn a few weeks back, I have finally got around to servicing my TLD25 and Daiwa SG50SH (with a couple of reels left to do). Not only have I saved myself having to pay someone else to do it but they are actually feel better than ever before.  I was extremely surprised how easy the job was to do and how incredibly therapeutic the whole process was!! I really wish I had attempted this earlier, but without this forum I probably would never have given it a go.
My only problem is now I'm going to need to buy new reels just so I can pull them to bits!

Oh Snap...... SSSSHHHHHH  !!!

Dont tell anyone, many of us will go out of business..   ;D

Good for you. 
I actually tell many people that contact me to try it themselves and send them links to this site & Specific tutorials...   
I also add that I do "Reels In a Bag" for the same price so they have nothing to lose!!!

Welcome to the group.  I seem to have the same problem of wanting to buy more reels to tear apart, lol.
