<font color='#0000FF'>Hello all,

I am in the process of building my own reel and have a question to you, what material should i use for the spool material? Till now I know about Derlin but what other materials, maybe cheaper exist?

Regards

Pierre

<font color='#000F22'>I've got a reel from Kent Tooling and it's all complete 316 Marine Grade SS.

Superbly made, cheap (£50 for a 100m Primary) and comes with a choice of line colours - mine's pink

Kent Tooling

JP at Kent Tooling (who is in the same club as me) will talk the horses home on the quality of his material, at the end of the day i think he's right.

We have another guy in the club who designs oil rigs and stuff and he winds JP up sometimes that his metal is not the best. But he later admits that the stuff he uses would be far too expensive and unnecesary for diving reels.

I cannot comment on his reels as i have never used one (well i have taken his over a couple of times, no problems) but i can strongly recommend his Pony brackets, top stuff Pony Brackets

See, I've seen this website before and was put off on the assumption that we were dealing with a couple of hundred. £50!!! For a 100m reel! A decent bit of kit! Someone hold me back Saturday morning at the dive show. I'm going.

Why aren't there any prices? I'm a poor, lowly student, and price is a big factor in any bit of kit I go for.

<font color='#000F22'>Digs,

Fill in the catalogue request and nice JP will send you a full catalogue with pix and prices.

It's the only reel I've ever bought that comes complete with spares kit.

Ditto on views on the pony clamp. Mrs Gavster got one and it's much better made than any other that I've seen.

Mention my name to John and you may be able to get a bit more discount, i'll let him know you are going to visit him. He's the little ugly guy with dark hair, not Arian Andy the big blond guy who works with him.

Digger - better get there fast - I may well pretend to be you for a discount!
Paul - AndyP suggested I talked to you about diving out of Dover - can't remember the name of the wreck, but he said there was one with lots to find on it - ring any bells?
Regards, and dive safe
Martin
