frankS Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Hi Wondering if anyone can help with a pretty long shot. Have a mate who has an old beach rod that he wants me to fix up for him. He would ( if possible ) like to keep it all the same as it once was, use the same type and coloured eyes if possible. I don't have the correct colour and am finding it almost impossible to locate any. Pictured is the eyes I need , I need one at approx. 22mm inside diameter and one approx. 18mm I/d . Picture 2 shows a set I do have that I may have to revert to fitting if I can't find some of the original. Very hard to buy old/new ceramic eyes these days. Willing to give a reasonable price + postage to anyone that may be able to help. The tip I will compromise. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I probably have some, I will go and have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I only have a few small ones, I must have given them away at some time, I have two with about 8mm holes and two smaller, got lots of the "high speed" ones, same frame, but all black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The ones I have are the red and white, sorry, not the ones you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I could very carefully paint the White ring Black so they would look alike. Frank Edited April 24, 2020 by frankS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Haven't seen the ones you want for ages now, I have a little "kit" of rod repair odds and ends, it's always handy when you want to repair something with stuff that matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
