Looking for Accurate Handle

BretABaker · 01-31-2008, 02:11 PM

anglers-proshop still seems to be out - does anyone have one or know where I can get one within 2 weeks? That little ball is not cutting it, similar to Mr Bills situation, except I don't want to pay for custom machining

I have one of those jigging master's in gold that I bought and never used. I bought it from angler's pro shop. I'll sell it for what I paid for it. I think it was 49 or 59 dollars.

sold if you can get it here before Feb 15th

I got the handle and it looks great, thanks MrBill - however my old screw looks almost stripped and its impossible to get off. any ideas?

MrBill · 02-04-2008, 08:27 PM

The allen screw on the handle is a reverse thread. You need to turn it clockwise to remove. It probably has loctite on it from factory so it will be a little hard to remove.

i did the same thing to mine until i figured out that accurate has the screw direction reversed

BretABaker · 02-04-2008, 08:35 PM

well since i kept trying to screw it out, its stripped. any ideas now?

MrBill · 02-04-2008, 09:07 PM

Were you using a phillips or slot screwdriver. If so, an allen wrench still might work in the screw. Remember to turn clockwise to loosen. If that is ruined, you will have to drill it out. That won't be easy as the screw is Stainless Steel.

You will have to start with a small bit 1/8". Don't go larger than 3/16" because that is the hole size on the handle.

i'll have to take it to FTU - I don't have those tools here. Dammit, thats annoying.
