i just run the line through the middle of a thick book ( use to use the sears catalogue) and set some more books on top to get tension i want.'

to strip line i put a bolt through the inside of a gator ade bottle cap, screw the cap on and put in cordless drill. tie the line to the bottle and wind it on. when done throw bottle away and keep the cap.

I've used my vice and a screw driver before as well.

Dont reel to fast to overrun and keep tension on the reel with your offhand. It aint rocket surgery.

a piece of foam padding or swim noodle between the spool and the vice can be compressed a little to add tension.

Personally I would tell your wife to stop complaining and hold the dam line, not to tight
