Ken Antonellis and John Hayes at Charles River RC have built these.
I also copied the frying pan spool design when I built my retriever.
They work well, but I would make the following mods:
1) Make the rear spool plate as large as possible.
This will discourage the line from jumping behind it
Has anyone on the list built a retriever from the plans that Laser Arts offers?
Any feedback you would care to offer?
If you want to reply privately, I'd be glad to summarize the info and post it
back to the list.
Thanks, Kevin Sheen

Hi Kevin,
I built three of them last year for the club and they do work fine.
The only change from the plans was to add more bolts to the frying
pan. Think I added three times the amount of bolts suggested but I
might have chosen a too soft pan. Hard to tell when you buy them ; )
Also if I was
