You are a sad sad man wanting such technical information.

However, I know an even sadder man who took this photo on 23 March 2015.

Thank you Google Photos for finding it when I searched my photos for 'scales' ... weirdly it never found it when I searched for 'Technium' or 'Shimano'



In response to "Am I redeemed Karlos?"

Yes, assuming you are going to weigh the spool, minus the weight of the empty spool...and then you'll be able to divide the weight of mono by 3 (or 4) to know when to stop winding it onto the spool.
At £5 a spool I shouldn't care...but I do care about line waste.
Imagine filling 2 spools and not quite having enough for a third! The stuff of nightmares...

Love it wrong spool though, close but no cigar. Is that one of the original can spools?

@119, great stuff 👍

Apologies, I have failed you mate
Just when I thought that the photo might actually be useful!

It may have been from a can, I can't remember....
EDIT: Thinking about it, probably not from a can or I would still have the can, I am a hoarder and wouldn't have thrown it away!
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
