I'd like to see some of these so called transformed reels . I met a guy from FWB that has a 302 that from the looks resembles a van staal. nice work indeed. If you have a customed penn or a mitchell can you post a pic or two so to see what a penn looks like?....Im considering some to be done. Thanks...

I have a few reels that I have drilled out. You can see and take a look. All parts that need replacement are replaced, also cleaned, new grease, and all new paint. Let me know what you think.

That's pretty cool. That way line dries faster and sand clears better. cool man. Is that pink? or is a color distortion.. How much weight did you take out you think on each one of them. .. did u drill any holes behind the spool casing as well? have pics of that?....what did you use to drill them that sharp.

I use a drill press and dremel. Lay it all out and then print out the work and then program into the press. Very good with my hands

Like he said!!! I just think people down south have more respect and are more polite than up north. But hey you never know who is around. This world is small.
