Refurbished Allcocks Popular

[Evert van der Plas]

This Allcocks pin did have a few problems but all parts where there, i cleaned the reel from dirt, oxide , first with water and soap and after that i used Scotch-Brite pads to remove the oxide, polished the parts with Brasso and fill up the pitting with metal epoxy and when that was dry i sand it by using a wooden stick with a small stroke sanding paper glued on there to make it easier to sand between the pillars
An other reel is saved from the bin i think

A fine job sir, your workmanship has done the reel true credit and what a wonderful invention that metal proxy is, I have used it myself. Certainly now looks like it has come straight out of the box, instead of thirty fathoms down!

[Crucian]

Good job Evert, and as you say, another reel saved from the bin

[Lea Dweller]

I can honestly say that I could not have done better myself!

[Hovis]

Wonderful job but tell me evert, what do you do with them when you've finished?

[AllRounder]

Hard to believe it’s the same reel, a wonderful transformation well done
