Handles

Post by Tony »

I’m looking for some new handles for a Young’s Flick-Em that I am to soon acquire. Can any one offer some advice on a whereabouts please?

Gary Mills of Mill Tackle will be able to help

Gary did indeed carry handle kits last year which included the cups and screws to go below them.

You can also make your own with pen blanks turned in a lathe, if you have one.

This image is Gary's cups and my handles:
