Static magging a Penn torque and other reels

[LGF]

ok, tried the office and there's a kazillion HD's who must meet the , but the bloke is very sick and not at the office, so i searched for a supplier in Pta, as I get lost South of Olifantsfontein Rd, with a GPS even the ones they factory install in Merc's. Found one and here's a pic of the Rare and Neo mag's they have for sale, will be visiting in roughly an hour or so's time. Do not have prices, but it doesn't seem that much for them on another site in Somerset West.
 
Any of you want some? lemme know approx sizes and quantities? They might not have the exact sizes you guys might want, but i'll get the closest too what it is you's might want.

was also considering replacing the side cover of the corvalus with the mag top left , previous post, that way i can cast a at least a 1 kg     for live bait

Henk... get me some small buttons roughly 5-6mm diameter, about 10 pleeease! Not more than 2mm thick? Thanks bru!

Cool, no probs
Reefs 10 : 5/6mmD x 2mmT

[REEFMAN]

nice job Reefs.

so in short one needs :

2x plates
2x magnets
strong bonding/glue

glue the plates to the spool and attacd the magnets onto that and bobs ur uncle

is it really that easy?

Yup. Did mine in about half an hour! You just need to make sure that the magnet doesn't touch the spool once it's in place.
I'm not sure if the 2 tiny magnets will be strong enough, but there is room on the glued plates to pop in another 2 if necessary. Only time will tell...

[LGF]

BTW, for those that perhaps want custm thicknesses and don't mind the ungly tool marks that DIY normaly leaves, I see they have some that is rod/cylindrical, perhaps one or two of those, then you could cut it to your precise thickness required.

[BAUMANNATOR]

The mod I did on my BG 40 was on the gear side. It is actually easier to do here (and quick), just not as adjustable as on the 'clicker' plate due to space issues. If using two magnets, make sure they are reverse polarity as the 'effect' is greater. You really don't want too much resistance, just enough for your casting style.

Spoke to the sales person, got some indicative pricing:
5mm or 6mm x 2mm discs R2.16
10mm x 2mm discs R2.46
there are some sizes in between but yeah this was just for info.

Henk, get me 10 of each please! You're a mensch! Don't mind if they're 2.5-3mm thick either. Maybe a selection of different thicknesses.

Kay, choon U what an' all, i'm vying to that pozie now, raait, what I'll do raait, is get some extra's (diffrint saaises) raait. So U want 5 or 6mm D x 2 or 2.5 or 3mm T (10) and the 10mm D also (10) Raait? so that is (20) an' all an' all? The extras (Sizes in between the specified), I'll get some in pairs of two, is that right for you?

[LGF]

from looking at the pic on their site, it seems there aren't many thicknesses and diameters between the 5 and the 10, anyhow, will see, will get a collection of them, i always need to stick something to the fridge of hold up some sort of line, wire, lure hanging from a needle getting paint dry in the "worx" so the ones that you don't want won't go to waste, and I mean a R2 something a pop, no issue!

[Homie]

Raait !!!

[LGF]

Raait !!!

kassam!

[MIKE PIKE]

Raait , what i'll do is pop in at L.K monday , Henk , maybe i'll also get some of those 5/6mm D and 2mm T magnets if you can will be grand an all.. , wanna try this on a Saltist 40... .... hou my bier vas , check hierdie move ...
