Took it out today with my dad. we put up a 54" Ascension delta about 200 ft and let it fly for a couple hours while I tried to teach my self how to fly my new Rev. Other than the crank handle is a bit too stiff to turn, it worked out great! As to how much line it can hold, it depends on the diameter of the line. With the spiderwire, it is very very thin. This reel would hold several MILES of 80# spiderwire. I am overboard with the 3300 feet that is on it now. There are not many places near my home where I can fly that far up without endangering air traffic.
You've done an excellant job! I make all my swivels for my large spinsocks 12-90 ft. May I suggest using sealed ball bearings on your reel? I use them on my swivels. They work great, and last for years. They only cost 2-5 dollars each, at any bearing house. You would need to add a brake to your reel though, if you haven't already. Barry
