ewalker Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hello, I am new to this site , I would like to start cleaning and repairing reels and do some rod repairs what equipment and tools would you suggest I invest in to start? I want to start with my own equipment then possible branch out and work on friends stuff when I feel comfortable. Thanks for any info.

Tony Maxwell Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Ed, I'd suggest only cleaning and lubing reels. There are so many makes and models that you would tie up a rather large fortune trying to stock parts. You will need schematics for each model/make reel, along with cleaning supplies and small tool kit. Use high quality lube & oil. I prefer Quantum Hot Sauce. As for rod repairs, get a good book on the subject, study, and practice, practice, practice. A good place for information and/or supplies is Jann's Netcraft, or Barlow's Tackle. Have fun. Tony When in doubt, Jerk & Shout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
