    1. Paul – It was great fun teaching you and I have to admit you are a fast learner. You are putting out some amazing reels and I hope you carry on for many more years to come. We will do our best to come to see you, have a beer or two and maybe dangle a fly as well. Thank you my dear friend and I do appreciate your kind words.

  3. John, your site is beautiful, but could never fully display the marvelous restoration and reelmaking you do. Keep up the great work!

    1. John – Thank you for your support and your very kind words. It has been a pleasure restoring reels for you and the added bonus is a friendship with a very special man.

  4. John, your work is just incredible. The two Brass Faced Perfects you sympathetically restored for me, I thought were dead and fit for scrap but they’ve come back to life. They are just “Perfect”. I can’t wait for the next four you’re going to do for me.

    1. I am pleased you like the brass face Perfects I restored for you, they were a challenge but I enjoyed bringing them back to life. Can’t wait to work on the next batch of reels and with luck they should turn out nice and I will get them back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for taking the time to leave a positive comment I appreciate it.
      Kindest regards – John
