Title: Another Jiggy just kind of came together :)
Post by: thorhammer on September 11, 2019, 12:30:52 PM
Had a few minutes and some parts laying on the bench from building a Cortez and a Chui Jiggy for my buddy SteelHeel, so I decided rather than put them back in the bins, I'd build out a PC kit I bought a couple months ago. Alan C. std kit, Torque aluminum clamp, Teddy Bear blade and shift lever, Gomexus knob, 10-66 star that I will upgrade with a black aluminum one, carbontex, chromed 500S guts and steel main. Prolly will DD bridge this one with a steel sleeve and be done with it on the next PC order. Alan C.'s customer service was on point with me.


Ted, hurry up with all your tuna canning- I have more of these knobs that need fresh blades :)

Sweet reel....

I'm looking for a black jiggy blade for a progear 255. That one looks perfect - Ted, if you're making more of these, mark me down for one.
