I'm in the Great State of South Carolina.

What 'cha need?


Ahhh. The tip is loose on one of my spinning rods. Never had one loosen
before. Have broken tips and have had them replaced, but I'm sure I can
"handle" this little repair. Question: what glue to use. That's it.

Actually, you proably only need to reheat the guide and reset it.

You can use a heat gun or a hair dryer on hot to loosen the glue and
reset the guide.

Or, failing that, super glue. Use the kind that has a filler in it.

Or epoxy.

Or electrical tape. :)

Electrical tape is too...well...South Carolinian for me. I mean, isn't
that what rednecks use to patch up their condoms?

That's duct tape. If it moves and shouldn't, use duct tape. If it
doesn't move and should, WD-40.

Me first ...re gearcase oil.
I think he mentioned something about North Carolina.... or was it South?
We can ask Larry to keep an eye out for him.
I don't know why, but I just don't see Tom being a happy camper living in
dixie.
'alf & 'alf as the Brits might say.
It would be nice to spend about 4... maybe 5 months in a nice balmy spot
over the winter/early spring and enjoy our climate from May till November.


Take a long Disney Cruise!


No thanks. What I don't want to find on a cruise are kazillions of
little brats.

For you, OK. I use duct tape. Takes the pressure better.



Gee, in our younger days, we used cut up pieces of firehose.

Now you are knocking good union people. The reason that some in the south
are called Rednecks. Hint: Mine unionization in a non union county.
