Reel Repair Tip

[FishTank]

I work on my reels and a few for a couple guys I know.  I found this set from Klein Tools and it's been a big help.  I always have a few reels that have odd screws. I have other tools I have used but this thing has been the best $30 I have spent in awhile.  I have used this too to work on my Mac and other weird things. 

 

Here is a Pic of my Daiwa Steez CT frame that I just worked on. It would have been impossible without it.

That will work, but you can get something similar from Harbor Freight for half that $.

Best hand warmer I've ever bought was a harbor freight 4" angle grinder.

I had several small screwdrivers from them I just threw in the trash.  They were the reason I bought this set. They were junk. They either chewed up screws or the tips were so bad they had fallen apart and were useless.  I have tons of tools from them, especially the Pittsburgh stuff, and no issues but these small screwdrivers were awful.  A lot of stuff from them is .... you get what you pay for type tools.

 

When it comes to reels though,  you have to have a good bite on screws and parts. If you don't,  you could have a reel waiting to be put back together.

I found out our Home Depot has these kits in stock. I plan to pick one up this week. Thank you @FishTank for causing me to spend more money for something posted on this forum. LOL.

That's were I got mine. I was going to get the self contained bit driver but saw this one. It had a bunch of odd bits that I have needed at some point but I never could find them.
