On a whim I bought myself another 'pin off ebay -well it was only a fiver and I felt sorry for it, take a look at the picture below and you'll see what I mean - it's brutal.
![Scared :Scared:](./images/smilies/icon_scared.gif)
it as best I can tell it is an allcocks black knight and apart from the horrendous modification all is well.
What I need your help with is the 2 handles and spindle posts I am going to have to make. I can probably muddle through but can anyone give me advice to stop me making any silly mistakes?
the rest of the refurb should be straight forward involving some filler,paint and a dremel and a lot of time.
I know this isn't up to Allcock's aerial standard but given a lot of tlc a perfectly serviceable reel should emerge.
Any help gratefully considered.
thanks and regards
Jeremy
