Dam Quick 330 foot damage?

Hello All,
I've managed to chip a piece off the foot of one of my much beloved and used 330's... dropped it on the concrete garage floor. Is there anyway I may re-attach the broken piece, or should I just nicely file it down? The reel is a user rather than a museum piece and carries its battle scares well.
Thanks Cat

Ask Evert van der Plas - a member of this forum - who seems to specialise in reel repairs!

A picture would help and what material is it made of.

Thinking about it, it might be better to send me the reel as the internals may not necessarily fit your reel. I will sort that for you. You may want to hurry up as my "workshop" (man cave) is about to be closed for a move from July and I am not sure when everything is arranged again. At the moment I know pretty well where to find the tools and parts

Ah Jeremy...just paying my debts. TFF! Give-and-take...German 1:1 translation...does this expression make sense in English, too?

"Give and take" is usually a term used to describe a compromise situation, where as your gift to a fellow forum member is an act of generosity within the spirit of the forum. It is always gratifying to be able to help a fellow member especially when you have received help yourself. Maybe "sharing favours" is a good way to describe this behaviour?
