Reel Handle |

I was wondering between all of you reel experts if there was anyone here who could make me a reel handle to match the dingley uniqua reels. Or does anyone
have a handle or perhaps an old reel that is no longer in service that I can buy for parts. I posted something similar in the classifieds, but someone
suggested I should ask in here as well. Thanks in advance.

Mark, I really think your best bet is Archuleta's Reel Works. IMO, he's the most skilled in this country. Phone: 888-332-7335.

Yea, I have already checked with him and it was going to be more than what I paid for the reel to fix the handle. That is why I thought I would ask around and
see if by chance anyone had some options for me. Thanks Pat.

I do not know much about Dingley's so does the handle have a screw that holds the handle on or is a rivet type. If it is a screw then you can send me the screw and I will make you a white or black handle out of Delrin for FREE to get you on the water with the reel. I made some for my reels you can see here. http://clarksclassicflyrodforum.yuku.com/topic/22757

Thanks FFP for the offer and I may take you up on that someday. Unfortunately I need the entire assembly, the handle, the screw, and the cup. And what makes
it harder is I need it to match or be a dingley handle like this. And thanks to oldfishbrain for this picture posted in a previous post.
