Shelf for home

thorhammer · January 21, 2020, 02:23:34 AM

Decided reels in totes was no advantage, so I took some scrap from my screen porch I've had for years in lumber rack and built a shelf for the shop. The pecan color was from the porch. I stained everything else the dark walnut color drawing on going to my great-grandmother's house as a kid- the beadboard was all dark walnut and the furniture as well. I still have the dining suite. One of my favorite touches of boat fit-n-finish is a teak-and-holly sole as found in Tiagra and Pursuit's, among others, hence the alternating light-dark-light.

Wow John! What a beautiful display! Too bad all those reels get in the way

Nice work, John!

Cool!
I could pull up a chair and spend a couple of hours looking at all those beauties.

Thanks, gents!

Sal, yours aren't on the shelf- they are sticked! It would be blasphemy to separate the awesome 16/0 knob from the Harnell it matches- and the other is on the Sal special (haven't posted that one yet). It's been fishing

It's a Surfmaster narrowed to 100 width with a spool gifted by Sal at dinner ath is house, and later he sent me a gorgeous handle- I had to put it all together and used a set of Alan C. black aluminum bars, -49 seat, and black torque clamp with ole-skool Hi Vis Stren from my stash.

modertaors, please right the pics.

thx.

Greg, took two hours to stock the shelf.

Notable- 99 from The Boss (for sweeping up his garage

; pre-war 66 and 1/0 from Sharkhunter; LB 60 built Mr. Oakes after he heard that was my first Penn; Penn 700 waiting me to install guts from Harry K; all sorts of stuff from Ted. All kinds of parts from Ohana made this possible.

Once pics are straight, see if you can find the Frankenpenns

Hint- you'll have to look closely; no Cortez or Accurate parts on these...

Now I just need to build another five shelves for the rest.

Great display unit John, awesome job.
I had great intentions, some months back, but that sure does motivate me to start...
Great job.
