    Default Penn 49 fishing reel

    Most of the times I build small things or toys which I sold. I rarely build something for myself, but then I decided it was time to build something to add to my collection of replicas which I build over the years. I took an old Penn 49 reel and build a replica of it. Unfortunately I couldn't get the gears to make the spool rotate when the handle is turned. I must still make a carboard box with the old advertisement on to go with the reel. The photo quality is not so good, it was taken with an OLD cell phone
