Jokes asside, has anyone got a completely U.S. (fit for the bin) prop they could donate to a good cause? 13" diameter would be Ideal but not important.

will a 12" prop from a 50 blueband do? It's OK but I'm never going to use it...

You can use them to make test props with for tuning an engine in a tank.That and they are cheaper to fix than buying a new one-and look like new when repaired.

I have other Idea's

for it, but can't go into details at the mo. A bent blade would be cool or a big chunk out of one of the blades. I am looking for a freebee though as I'm a tight git.

Nos4r2 that'll be great....Is it damaged? Be a shame to deliberatly damage a perfectly useable prop though.
I do however need one pretty urgently.

I have a really bent specimen, I use it whilst training to empahasis the importance of depth info on charts. I throw it at em if they fall asleep!

I'll have a look for it! It was off the Camel so I think it's a 14

There's nothing wrong with it....if someone else has one then....? If you're really desperate it's there though

Rogue Wave · 21 November 2005, 20:01
