Hi Everyone,

First post here. I have an OLD large Thimble Drome handle (NOT the Half A one). It is made of clear plastic enclosing two independent line take up spools. Each spool has indentations on the circumference where it can be locked down by a plastic key. I suspect it was made for the COX Comanche 15 size plane.

Does anyone know its history and operating instructions?

The Thimble-Drome 'Handy Reel' c.1957 came out prior to the Comanche.

That's the one! It is a lot older than I thought. Does anyone know how to load the spools without disassembling it?
