I bought a few old beaver dams off of ebay. one of them was having issues, a bent rod, and when I went to spool it was freespooling without turning the shaft... ruh roh.
when I unsoldered the spool, it came off in 3 (or 4 I guess) parts. bushing, top of spool, bottom of spool, rivet/pin.... so I'm guessing this spool is toast or is it supposed to come off like that? I'm used to new ones that come off in one pc.
Thanks,
Steve
