One day I hope to produce work to this quality. Both reels are to scale, working, models.

How did your father make the gears for the reels - presumably he cut the teeth by hand? They are fantastic, and very original - I have never seen anything like them before anywhere. Your father must have been a very accomplished turner indeed.
