"i removed the anodizing"
looks great! how did you know what was underneath ;)

Zinox

I was pretty sure it was just plain aluminium but tried with one of them first, to make sure i didn't  ruin them both.

I used Caustic soda(?) in water to remove it, and it was very very effective :P

Just received a EVA knob its realy nice and only weights 11gram, iv'e had problems with my power handle reengage during cast, but this works great, and no matter what i do it only engage the reel when i turn the handle myself :)

Now i just need to make a proper counter weight instead of the coins :P

re-engage,  i haven,t had that happen to me yet.
for your counter weight you might like to try
a lead sinker,paint, and epoxy.(saltydog style, lures site)

I kind of like the coins as a counter weight. Different anyway! :o

At least with that reel, you'll never be poor.  There is an Asian thing that if you give a purse or wallet, you should never give it empty signifying that you are poor.  We always include some money, even a penny so that you are never poor and your wallet or purse will be filled with money.  
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

I think the coins look awesome! Maybe change the nut to a nice little capped one. Doesn't get any more ghetto than that! :)
