Title: My Penn 155 is in a bowl!
Post by: Realtfish on October 22, 2012, 09:06:09 PM
Hello everyone, new to the forums and i come with a serious problem. I recently found a old Penn 155 at a garage sale for 5 bucks, i took it home and today i decided to take it apart and clean/lube it up. Problem is..... I can't get it back together. I now have about 30 pieces of my 155 in a large bowl. Does anyone know of a tutorial,video,guide that can help me put it back together? Would be much appreciated.

Thank You,
Realtfish

Hello Realtfish, no need to panic ;D. You could check out any of Alan's tutorials on these smaller reels, actually even the larger ones. They're all pretty much the same,  here is the schematic for that reel, for starters:

Welcome, by the way.

The Jigmaster tutorial is close enough that you should be able to figure it out. Alan went part by part through that one.
