Thanks to John @ Kent Tooling

Rang him Monday afternoon to order some hi-viz line for a reel - arrived today - great service

However, it was a real bugger measuring it to make sure I got the right length - only have a 1ft ruler - think I got the conversion right, lost count twice. Perhaps next time I'll buy it in 1m lengths (get a new ruler) and then just count the lengths and then join them

I measured the distance between the radiator in my livingroom and the radiator in my dining room. Exactly 5m!

So now I can easily measure line in 5m increments.

The day I reduced my pathfinder reel from 150m to 100m was particularly amusing...

Why did you have to re-measure it!!!!!!!

Nick you asked for 100m you got a bit more than that, i could have put a loop at 50m if you wished

More great service from John! The parcel arrived start of the week John, my reel looks brand new, your advice was spot on (of course!).

Anyone needs a friction reel or any of the other range John does get in there. You won't get better. If you want a ratchet reel you'll have to get in line...

Digs.
