Lets see all them Daiwa's
Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
I still mean to order a DIY spool for my original Type R, would also like to get the covered nut and lock plate to replace that silver cheap stock plastic. Been a solid reel, my first ever Daiwa.
Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
The red nut, red screw and black lock plate on my Type R were spares from a Ray's studio carbon fiber handle. You should be able to order the nut and lock plate off Aliexpress.

A couple color combinations I tried recently

And it didn't even collapse into a black hole when you mounted that reel. Bravo!
This is the way.

Yup, none of this (I've abused this gif, but it's so applicable):poisonokie wrote: ↑Fri May 17, 2019 12:12 pmAnd it didn't even collapse into a black hole when you mounted that reel. Bravo!

Cool. Bout time I saw something with those blue knobs. I thought they might look good on my zillion, but I got the red ones instead.

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
No they don't, I put my SS Air handle and knobs on this reel and put my SS SV Limited carbon handle on my SS Air. I run 80mm handles on BFS and 90+mm on all other reels so the SS SV Limited handle had to go, if that makes sensepoisonokie wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2019 10:03 amThat an alphas air? Do they all come with red knob posts?

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
I'm the same way. I bought mine "used" from an eBay seller in Japan and whoever had it before barely used it, if at all, and upgraded the handle and knobs. I took it a step further and added some hedgehog parts of my own. Love that reel.

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
That’s a good looking reel and for me any reel with a Alphas frame is worth having and upgrading
