Thank you.
Quite the superb little reels! I am working on another at the moment. I had two parts reels and decided to make another Frankenreel. Lol.
One has a newer style 58 flier, so that'll give me 2 large fliers and spools.
I've tried to make all my repaints with similar colors, so the larger fliers will swap with any of them and still color coordinate.

I can't help myself. Love working on vintage reels.

Peace!
