My only qualms.. seems like hedgehog parts are very prone to discoloration + the side plate purple circle thingy is so darn hard to stick on.. im currently using adhesive tape to mash them together.. will see how long will it last befre applying some bond glue to it.

That handle is the same as the Ray's Studio DIY parts sold on Aliexpress. There's a thread in the Reels section about these parts if you're interested.

Hi buddy~

Sorry for the super long reply.

I managed to get myself the same type of handle.

You can get it from Angler's Outfitter Singapore.. pretty sure they do ship i think.
