Restored a Kenny Kendall centrepin reel

This reel was close to the bin, the holes in the front spool plate where ruined by trying to drill them out further so made a new front on the lathe
First cleaned it up a bit to see if there where other problems, removed the line pillars and try to use them again but some where damaged to much, made new pillars and drilled 2mm holes in both ends and bring on thread in them to assemble the spool with small bolts.
