B_Rose12 Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 I’m going over a friends Lews Tournament MB and I noticed the metal drag washer with the ears has bent ears. I’m sure this can’t be correct and just curious what caused this Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted March 22, 2022 Super User Posted March 22, 2022 I'll bet that is not bent it was made that way on purpose. How about it @DVT. 1 Quote

Super User PhishLI Posted March 22, 2022 Super User Posted March 22, 2022 I'm taking bets on whether or not he's already hammered it flat. Who's in? 1 8 1 Quote

Are you doing one of those "everyone wins, but you can't take the money out" online gambling promos? If so, I'll take a fin on flattened, and a parlay on flying missing spring... 1 3 Quote

SmugOne Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 The guys is just asking a question and gets made fun of. I thought the purpose of these forums was to share knowledge and experience with people, not make them feel bad for asking questions. 3 1 Quote

The OP has a beard, so I doubt he needs a Prince Charming. It's not like he's 9. Plus, he received the correct information before I viscously assaulted him. Grown men can have a little fun around here once in a while with some gentle ribbing, wouldn't you say? 1 Quote

I contribute plenty around here, good sir. Occasionally I'm actually helpful, I think. Lighten up. Quote

Since the OP hasn't replied in this post maybe he didn't find the humor in the hijinx. Thanks for humbing yourself in a public forum and addressing me as sir though. 1 Quote

newapti5 Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 That bent washer is probably for factory workers or machines - easier to line up the drag stacks on an assembly line. Just saying. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted March 24, 2022 Posted March 24, 2022 Those washers come like that. The reason is anyones guess. Reinstall as you found them, tabs down. 1 Quote
