Engineering at its finest.
If your'e looking for a new project wm, I think you should make the the Lloyd Gladstone Gough trotting reel next, details are shown in the March 1964 Creel mag.
Wal.
Hmm, I do believe I have a copy of that issue somewhere. I must look it up now

The real looks absolutely stunning, I think even using a cnc you'd of struggled to better it, hope you get some great joy from using it and pride that you built it yourself, it's worthy of a place in a cabinet never mind getting grubby on a rod

For something like this I might be able to justify £700.
Stunning.

Exquisite work, Sir. This is the reel maker's art at it's finest; being able to follow the process from beginning to end is simply the icing on the cake.
Bravo!

I had the opportunity to handle the reel on a recent visit to WM+ It is every bit as lovely as it looks
