Spearfishing Speargun ReelThe original model was super vague on assembly instructions and the mount didn’t fit my gun. You can’t resize it because then it wouldn’t mount to the rest of the reel. My mount uses just two zip ties and mounts to any round style speargun. I’ve included mounts for a 25mm and 32mm diameter guns (my two JBLs) but I have included the fusion 360 files and can upload a different size if you need one.  Material:I printed mine in PETG, but anything that isn't PLA, TPU, or ABS should work as this will be exposed to lots of saltwater and sun. Print Settings:.2mm layer height4 perimeters5 top and bottom layers25% cubic infill Dive reel hardware:1x M5x50 bolt + heat insert1x M3x35 bolt or screw + nut Assembly: Install the M5 threaded insert into the appropriate reel mountInstall the M5x50 bolt into the tensionerInsert the Handle Center into the Handle skinny side firstAttach to the Reel Outer with the M3x35 bolt or screw using a nut on the backGlue the Center Winder into the Reel Outer with the notches facing inwardStack the rest of the pieces per the picture and secure to the reel base with the Tensioner (I'm not sure the washer is 100% necessary, but your mileage may vary)Insert your mono or dynema line through the loop on the Line Holder and tie around itWind your line up (make sure you're winding in the tighten direction)Install the Line Guide and fee the end of your line throughInsert zip ties through the slots in the Reel Mount and use them to attach the reel to the gunAttach your reel line to your shooting/spear lineHappy Spearing!Edit 8/29/24: Added a version for a belt reel to wear on a weight belt.
