![Hat Off :Hat:](./images/smilies/icon_takehatoff.gif)
Late morning I returned to my friends farm workshop to grind a Rapidex pawl and give the reel a general fettle. After initial disassembly and degrease, I was kindly distracted by the offer of lunch with the farmer and his wife - no sane man refuses home made lamb hotpot with pickled beetroot and red cabbage! Two portions and a pot of tea later I returned to the bench grinder to find things had moved! I found the spool cap parts on the floor but the bakelite was cracked and the centre screw and lever spring was missing. Checking over the bench I couldn't find the pawl anywhere either! Vanished! A quick radio message from farmer John came back with denials from his farm workers. Nobody had been in the workshop apparently, therefore it must have been Mr Nobody

Either that or a particularly mischievous farm cat

Following this "great lunch (with losses)" moment can anybody help with the following please?
1. Check pawl - preferably LHW to avoid going back to the haunted workshop!
2. Original bakelite spool cap
3. Spool release lever spring
I know I can source these parts or their modern replicas from Garry Mills but he's too busy to answer the phone again and I'd really like an original spool cap if possible.
Any help appreciated
