The answers are in but they are not together. The one who puts it together first gets the reel! I'm looking for the manufacturer and the name of the reel! Look to the Grateful Dead and the Pope! This has been fun; I'll even mail the reel unless you live close. If you decide you don't want the reel, the next one in line can have it. This has been a game, not an expensive game, but a fun one. Thank you. I hope you had fun.
