A Giant Wind Farm Is Taking Root Off Massachusetts
Cuttyhunker replied to codfish's topic in Massachusetts Fishing
This was the assembly site last summer in New Bedford last summer. My pal with many years in the marine construction biz estimated the big crane as a 3000 tonner, and had never seen on so big. The one on the right is no midget either. Next to the building on the right are the modular mast units that are vertically assembled in New Bedford prior to deployment. -

Removing stuck drag washers from 3/0
Cuttyhunker replied to henryj02's topic in Reel Maintenance and Repair
I made a right angle "knife" by hammering a 5D box nail down to a flat point, then bending the tip to a right angle to get inside the main gear hole so I could work it under the bottom drag washer. penetrating oil helps too. -
I posted Kencor schematics on AlanTani.com a repair site, all kencor factory parts were lost years ago after they folded. The folks at the site may be you best bet for replacements or work arounds

I've watched your individual acquisitions, but have never seen "the pile" before. Real estate is down a little, you're gonna need a bigger house

Old style tailplate bearing I'd say older maybe 70's, hard to tell no serials on the old Senators. Tough reel easy to fix and lots of parts. If it has 3 drag washers upgrade to a 5 stack kit. Will last for generations, a good 30 lb class rig.

Bushings cast better and are strong enough for 110 targets, I don't know of a replacement kit to change to bearings. It's not broken

Jigmaster would be perfect for you.
