Bloomin' 'eck.... that is exquisite Wal....

Superb Wal!

Can't quite decide if deciding that toggles are the answer shows madness or genius. Either way I have a coat with toggles in the garage that I will look at in a different light now!

Probably madness is nearer the mark Steve but I can always say they cost buttons to make. Anyone got a decent belt for my duffle coat please..

Wal.

Bloody marvellous Wal, a first class job mate, it'll look even better beside a plump autumn perch.... it's that time of year .

From wreck to showcase job. Utterly superb. Heartwarming to see such a fine reel restored.

Super job , you really get stuck into a project when it piques your interest it seems .
Great skills as usual

Fantastic work Wal. A reel back from the dead.

Very skillfully done Wal. Just shows you what can be done with a bit of ingenuity.
A good name for a reel resurrected from the dead would be the Lazarus.

How's you engraving skills.

Perhaps as the face was turned from Tufnol, a better name would be "Phil" ... as it's a traditional spinner !!!

Nice one Mal, I was a bit stumped finding a name for it. I am sure I'll be bowled over with suggestions now though.
