I joined this site in 2014. Guys like highplainsdrifter,awesomejohn,and many more made this site a must subscribe. Scooby came along and kept it interesting. Now he’s pretty much gone. Hate to say it boys but it ain't that interesting anymore.

Best Grease To Tame Oscillating Block Knocking Or?
olvart replied to TopStriperAngler's topic in Reel Maintenance and Repair
I have 2 Spheros 2014 reels.5k&6k Both are no knockers,lol. On the other hand,I am on my second Penn Clash,first replaced by Penn,that drives me nuts with the knocking. I don’t know if its a dimensional thing with the oscillation block but I’m ready to take my dremmel tool to it. Parts are cheap and I might learn something,lol. -
PayPal Goods and Services Rant - What are we actually paying for?
olvart replied to fishguy62's topic in Main Forum
I'm done with Paypal! Not going to pay sale's tax on JDM. And,if I sell over $600 in one sale or multiple sales it's IRS time. -
Self-maintenance or paid maintenance?
olvart replied to Newport Striper's topic in Reel Maintenance and Repair
This guy is the best I have found for specific reel DIY. He's not slick but he will walk you through it. The only guy that will tackle Shimano Baitrunners. And,don't forget,a Stradic is a CI4 etc,etc. Figure it out -

I did gunsmithing in Alaska for nearly 20 years . Back in the late ‘80’s,the VA extended my GI bill,and,just for fun,I went to a gunsmith school in Denver during my winter months when I wasn’t guiding. Long story short,at the school,when a spring flew out,we would yell out,”assume the gunsmiths position “. Everyone on their knees,looking for a tiny part,lol. Same with reels… You get good at it after awhile.
