Hi muppetsdad,

Second hand parts, especially good ones, are hard to come by for the SB model 45 as they snapped up fairly quickly.
But most (if not all) new parts are still available for the 45, (with the exception of chassis, chain-case cover etc.) wink

In fact, we have new 6 blade cylinder reels (OEM part number A451581) in the OutdoorKing Online Store at present.
The 10 blade reel does not suit all types of grasses, as you would most probably know. wink
cheers
