@@elmaestrodeliendres ¡Muchas gracias! ¿Quién necesita equipos modernos cuando los aparejos antiguos funcionan igual de bien y tienen mucho más carácter? Líneas apretadas. ❤️🎣❤️
Another miniature piece of art and great to see it in use with that special old rod - it’s incredible how moving the stories and associations we have with various pieces of kit can become. A lifetime of venues, seasons, outings, weather, captures and angling memories in that cork handle! 🎣
An enjoyable, informative and entertaining hour well spent!!! Can't wait to see more vintage gear and hand-crafted floats put to use in the next video, Bravo!!!🤗🤗🤗
Wicked video and superb clarity and information.. Can't wait to see the next video something else to add to your repertoire Andy ! Cheers Paul. PS.. Ordered a circle centering tool after your recommendation and it also reminded me to order new batteries for the digital verniers ;)
Hi Andy. That Lathe looks great. Do you have any sourcing details? Also that tailstock that accepts the float spindle looks different from the usual cone point on the ones I've searched out.
@ceej100 Hi. Thanks for the view and the comment. I took the point out and made a bush with a 3mm hole to fit inside the bearing. I used a small aluminium bar and drilled a whole though it. I hope that makes sense. As for source details, it's just one I picked up on Amazon. I don't know enough about them to offer a review or recommend brands. Cheers. Andy.
Hi again Andy, Ive just recently bought some 4mm cane BBQ sticks and they make some nice Billy Lane style ducker floats and like you say, the optimum length is around 15 cm. I've made a few Avons at around 18 cm and theyre a bit more stable on the river.✌❤ Bob.
