A lot of you probably have been to his seminars, but this was new for me.  Alan's got the right temperament for such detailed work, but more importantly, for teaching others.  He made my repair a piece of cake, but it was more fun watching him working with 12 guys and as many reels at one time, like a chess master.  (No,I didn't tackle the bag of parts "hypothetical reel" there, but he gave me the confidence to do it on my own.).  Thanks again Alan.

Alan's clinics are great.  It is so useful having him as a back up when you get your reel taken apart and can't remember where all the parts go.  Thanks again Alan!

For $3, I took an modest freshwater baitcaster and souped it up to handled BIG fish.

Alan, thanks again!
