likwid, I put in smoothies and a new worm gear for the levelwind. when i tried it out, the spool would bind-up someplace inside the left side plate where the mags are. so i have taken it all apart a few times, but that "catch" point or whatever won't go away. i even took out the new worm gear and put back the old one since it appeared the new one wasn't an exact fit (which i doubt since i bought it from the hatteras guys at the msba show; i put something together wrong.).

i went down to my local pond to try it out, and when i took it apart again, there was white plastic shavings inside the left plate: some thing is not meshing correctly with the large white plastic gear inside the plate.
