Modern Float Winders

Post by Roachy »

Its been quite a while since i posted on this forum.
Over the past couple of years i have been collecting British floats and recently decided that they needed displaying.I thought the best way to go about this would be to use old float winders.I came across these 2 winders a while ago,and after a closer inspection realised that these were quite recently (within the last 30 years) made. I know and have seen winders made by Paul Cook but does anyone have any idea as to who made these 2?Image

Treat yourself to this 344 page briilliantly written book about all things relating to winders.

I already have it along with his book on floats. i also have Keith Harwoods book and About floats published from clippings from the Fishing Gazette. It still doesn,t help me put a name to these winders.
