I know. But after soaking in natural chemical bath to get the stench out, trying to lube the crap out of the component to restore the parts to working condition, and finding spare parts to repair the damages to the broken internal and external parts, I gave up. Should have save the body and spool though. Ran out of room to store them.

Wow. I tossed that, and its spare spool, out the door just a few months ago. Components were ceasing, bent, and damaged beyond restoration.
