Hole in the prop. If the hole is in the center, like a two inch hole, then
this is used to make up the prop during construction and drilling but to
help in balancing as well. When the job is done it is usually painted over
with hot wax. This keep the moisture out. This is a must. Always store
and while on the plane keep the prop blade in the horizontal position. If it
is a two blade prop. This keep the moisture if any from being heavy on one
end. With a three blade then it don't matter but with the hole waxed, then
the problem is less. Just my two cents.
