I'm tempted to do some DIY drag washers for my reels - Any tips on material and cutting?
Are there sheets of material to buy? Can they be laser cut?
I want to get/make some for my Okuma Obsidian reels..

I must admit I did think about it, even went looking at carbon/ptfe sheets, but never took it further. I wondered if a punch might be able to cut through the carbon sheet, thats as far as I got !
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.
