Not that's a idea. Instead of building a $300.00 dunk proof reel, why not just build an after market "conversion kit" for an existing reel. The "conversion" may have to be done in a shop. I.e., instead of re-inventing the wheel, just modify and enhance it.

People make after market parts for cars, so why not reels? Humm...
