This Smith & wall Zephyr reel deserve a better look so i polished the back plate and brass parts, removed the old varnish layers and give the reel a fresh look.

All parts cleaned and polished

Just one word - FABULOUS

I seem to have drooled all over my keyboard....

Just one more cast love, and I'll be on me way home

Beautiful Evert! Better than new I'd say.

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.
