Thanks to the efforts of our Secretary-Treasurer, Roger Schulz, along with a host of members that contributed articles, our book on Reel Restoration and repair is finally finished. The book gives numerous hints and demonstrations as to how best to clean and lubricate both antique and conventional reels as well as methods to make commonly required repairs. In addition, there are articles about materials used and importantly, guidelines for proper restoration and for grading of our reels. The format is a notebook-style, working document that will accommodate additions over time and also serve as a place for members to add their own individual notes and methodologies.
You can order your restoration booklet by sending a Private Message (PM) to Roger and he will provide you with the information you need to either mail in a payment or use PayPal if you prefer. Cost is $49.95, which includes shipping by Media Mail. If you prefer, you can pay an extra $10 for priority mail delivery instead. International sales are also welcome at the most reasonable rate we can find (maybe go in with others and split a flat rate box?). All profits will go to support the Club, so order your copy before they are all gone!
