Thought all spools were produced by cnc machines?

Spool prices will vary and I imagine the actual cost to make any spool is low. Pricing will be based on the price of the reel its for.

For example a 500 quid basia would look like a rip of if the spool cost just 15 quid.

There maybe differences in the material costs but generally I think they are all machined from solid stock. Casting could be too brittle and has the potential for porosity etc.

How do you guys find the line clip on the ninja I personally don't like it, wondering if there is a way of improving it?

Yeah it's a crock of poo. I might try and knock up some spring loaded clips for it.

I need to have a proper look at them but it should a case of simply turning some new ones up a lathe at work.

Just had a look at mine I think you can use the same conversion as they use on the emblems/ gs 3000 and 4000s - south coast reel conversions do a self fit ones there's a vid on there website?? Anyone else converted there ninja line clip, such a lovely reel with a crap clip😤

It looks like it might be too big and need filing down to fit properly. I might buy one to see if it works

Just in case anyone else is looking to improve the line clip on the ninja.

A gs3000/4000 clip from South Coast custom reels will fit with some light filing.
