Swimming Lane Marker Reel

A couple of weeks ago Tina called her dad up and asked if he thought he could fix the swim team's lane marker reel.  It was going to cost about $1500 to buy a new one.




This is at the pool and Tina and dad are unrolling the lane markers so we can take the reel home in our little car.


Here dad is brazing the tubing after he had cut and molded it.




Dad washed the reel so we could take a clean picture of  the reel after he had put it together.


Putting it together.


Here is the first one put together.  He finished the second one later on today.


All painted.  I don't think he has lost his touch in fixing things.  Tomorrow he should finish it up. He says provided his old body holds up.
