Matthew Reel goes by Matty, Matt the Evil Cat, and Ratty.
Get a role of valcro strips and cut them into 6" strips. Attach them to the reel and the cover at about every 3 feet. Then attach the strips together and you will be able to reel the cover onto the reel and it will stay tight.
It's pretty simple. All you gotta do is thread the fishing line of choice through the highest eye and go all the way down to the reel. Tie a knot around the reel and start reeling it in. You might want to hold it a little tight right above the reel. This helps it keep from birdnesting, or coming off the reel and tangling up really bad. Hope this helps! Southernfishing101.webs.com

The torque might be too high on the feed reel, a quick remedy might be to use a low torque reel to hold the feed reel tape. The one on the left is called the feed or supply reel and the other is called the take-up reel. A low torque reel is one that has larger than normal hub. REWIND the tape onto a reel that has a quantity (about 10 mins) of old tape already on the reel and load the tape you are trying to play onto this reel with the old tape still on the hub. This extra tape will keep the supply reel from producing as much pull on the tape near the end of the reel as before. Keeping in mind if the tape was recorded on this machine, the audio will sound too fast near the end of the tape. The error has already been recorded. This might turn out to be a redo. (record on and play the tape again). PS. In the old days you could buy these low torque reels.
A clock reel is a device for measuring yarn and turning it into a skein. It consists of a hub that rotates on an axle, and 4 to 8 spokes that radiate outwards, forming a reel. Each spoke has a crossbar at the end. The axle is mounted in a wooden box. Inside the box is a set of gears connected to a shaft with a pointer on the end. The circumference around the crossbars was usually an even number of feet; often two yards, as this is a convenient size for a skein of yarn.The yarn is wound onto the crossbars by turning the reel. Turning the reel causes the gears to turn inside the box, which cause the pointer on the outside of the box to turn. A dial allows the pointer to indicate how much yarn has been wound onto the reel.Clock reels often had a mechanism that would click or pop for each turn of the reel. The device was commonly known as a weasel because of its long, thin shape. This is the origin of the children's song "Pop Goes the Weasel".
You can but after a few days it will lock up and want reel at all. it will not help it spin eathir. if it goes slow then just put a drop of ur reel oil in it. reel oil is also cheaper.
Use mortar cement mixed with some brick colored dye.
Depending on the size of the reel it held anywhere from 50 feet (3 inch reel) to 400 feet (7 inch reel) of film. Sometimes an additional 50 feet to 100 feet could be squeezed onto a reel, but this was risky. The cassettes for Super 8 cameras have 50 feet each. After development several could be spliced for use on a larger reel in the projector.
Fishing line wrapped around a stick is effective, but a real reel is much more convenient. This reel of film has a real neat topic.
