Oh No!

I'll be in Alaska.  This is the third time in a row I'll have been out of town.  :smt013

Keep posting your schedule, Alan.  I'll make it one of these times!

Yee-Haw I need a little Tani love on my Avet SX!!!

If you own a reel you have to get down to FW and let Alan coach you through souping it up.

Can someone tell me the format for this seminar?  I'm a little confused because the time interval is so long.

Bring in your reel and Alan will walk you through giving it a tune-up and or upgrade. Alan's knowledge is free you pay for the parts.

If a person had a bag of all the parts and a schematic to a reel,  could he hope the seminar would result in an assembled, functioning reel?

You would spend a long time there but if you have any hope of getting it together Alan is the guy that can help.

What is your experience with shimano Alan?  I am pretty sure that I am coming to soup up my 6500c, have you look at a beat 5500 and my curados.....  I have a 201b and a 201bsf that are in good condition, but I would like to maintain.

Maybe even my super beat 4600.

Mol....how dare you question "ALAN TANI"  :smt018

He rescued my Culcutta a few months ago (when I dumped my kayak on surf and my reel was covered with sand and salt water) and he's currently working on my Curado (clean + lube and upgrade drag washer)

    :worship :worship Alan knows all :worship :worship

This sounds like an opportunity I will regret I have to miss becasue of work.  Are there any plans for a weekend seminar any time in the future?

I have no doubt that Alan is the Jedi Master, but I keep hearing Abu, so I was curious.

My curado bsf had a bunch of sand in it recently....I got the sand out, but I just need to lube it up well, maybe upgrade the drag.

My 5500 and 4600 need MAJOR help....

For some reason I find this post to be highly amusing..... The vision of a bag of random part is classic.
