Quote from: SteveTX on September 29, 2017, 08:15:59 PMAnniversary gift from the wife. She went to Texas, and her and her friend went to a flea market. The reel is the same coloration of our wedding, on St Patricks Day. Kind of a cool old reel. I like random stuff like that too. I have a salt water round reel from like the late 70s early 80s. When we went on our honeymoon in Maine and Boston, we went with her Grandparents to a flea market in Maine. We were out by the ocean area. There was this old round reel with a lighthouse design on the side plate. So I decided that was my souvenir from Maine sincee they are famous for their awesome lighthouses. Old Bantams were a "your gonna be a daddy" gift. One old Daiwa was given to me by her other Grandfather, Papa. Old black Shimano was given to me by one of my mechanics that found it cleaning out his shed. The rest, well...thats a whole nother story, and a whole lotta coin. Lol

I like them and they are affordable for me. When you're on a fixed income affordability is important. I'm curious as to how well the duraluminum gears work out, they feel smooth now, time will tell.

The lights look nice, well the whole case is very nice looking. (https://i.imgur.com/GeUqFG9.gif)
In the past I thought about refinishing a old gun display case to put my guns in. I think they look nice. But I argue with myself about how long before someone decided they wanted them bad enough to break in. So I have decided to not do a display case. They are for the most part in the gun safe.

Matt are you not able to get lighting into the center? It all looks reel nice but a little more lighting in the middle would make it pop!
Perhaps you can attach some LED strip somewhere in there or something. ????
