 I posted this in another thread and thought I would share here.

Take a 1 1/2 or 2 in. 1/4 to 3/8 bolt and find a place to mount it.  I have used the outside of a cabinet in the garage.
 
 To the bolt add 2 wing nuts, and 2 rubber washers/gaskets facing each other.

  When you need to respool romove the bolt from where ever and then remove one of the washers and wingnuts.  Place your spool onto the bolt and replace the washer first then wingnut.  Make sure the spool is touching the rubber gasket on both sides.
 
 Place the bolt back into it's holding area and then adjust the tension on the spool with the wingnuts.  Your ready to wind away conviently in your workspace

I think is a decent cheap alternative to the Berkley Line Winder.  If you have 30 bucks to spare though, I recommend going with the berkely.  It comes with a line stripper as well.

GRAPEAPE, this is a great tip  I have an Idea! I have an Idea!

I have made one of my own a few months ago and I can't believe I never thought to post it here before  I feel like I am hitting my head against a brick wall!

Mine is a more portable version made from an old rod c/w reel seat.

Grapeape...Your tip is great.  I stated to bassinkorea that if you put a tip within a tip thread....it won't count.
A member must start a thread with a tip for it to count in the contest Wink

I know,  I just had a flash of brilliance when I saw his set-up that's all.  hopefully when he sees this he creates a thread with his pics.
