I had the same issue with the wing nut coming loose as I was spoiling my reel. I took some painters tape and wrapped it behind the wing nut. This kept it in place. Thanks for making the video.
I made this, thanks for the video. It should be mentioned that in addition to spooling toward you, if that means it's turning in the same direction that would tighten the wing nut, flip it around. Mine got tighter and tighter, until I realized it was tightening. I ended up butting 2 nuts, absolutely no play at that point. Worked really well!
Make yourself an arm with an eye (hole in top of wood, metal rod in that, bent over, & shaped into an eye for the line) to keep the line roughly centered over the spool so it won't roll off either side to get tangled and you'd have just about the perfect line spooler.

what about using double knot?
I was planning on making one but I didn't think of the spring. Thanks for the video from one beard to another
Great DIY. I had my line come off and bird nested on me. Do I need to spool new line or can I use the same one?
This is just perfect for what I was thinking of doing. Plus I have scrap wood and hardware in the garage. Thanks Brother 👍🏻

Thank you Sir for this tip👍👍
Isn't the line supposed to come off anti clockwise? What direction does the reel on the fishing rod go?
great idea thanks for sharing my man
That’s awesome man
Good video thanks I'm going to do something similar. Thanks for idea.
I have looked for those washers and can not find them
Thank you
excellent
Is that a black max?
Yessir.
put it right below your fishing rod you dont have to do that
I built my spooler for less than $1. One pencil and my son to hold the pencil.
The son you built cost much more than this guy’s contraption lol
