It is !  The Problem with the reel  is that    well,  "its old"   Ha Ha  ,  In side  there is a coil spring  That I removed< The spool has a tit that fits into a hole in a gear . That gears teeth do the clicking.  With me so far!  Well anyway  I removed the spring because it only served to keep the tit from staying  in the hole it was  desinged to fit into     so by removing  the spring  the tit  is able go into the hole on the gear   but there is a small bit of extra space between the two  and the spring only adds to that problem    so I think  I need a spacer pushing the spool  towards the gear  not away  like the spring does     Way to hard to explain in writing     Maybe  that guy from Sweeneys   whats his name   ashton   ?  maybe he can figure it out    Hey  Allistier   Whats up  !!!!  <@(())><   Long time no see  . Good to hear from you   Give Me A call sometime  707 294-4738  Â
