Al also has a web page on his prop construction:
http://members.aol.com/alwick/prop.html
Also see Lee Devlin's http://k0lee.com/propfab.html
At Oshkosh this year I parked next to a Canadian canardian (I couldn't =
resist!) Giles Gratton who had a home made prop on his Velocity. See =
http://www3.sympatico.ca/mathieu.gratton/CGDOU/CGDOU.htm Really nice =
looking prop!
Oh, and if you decide this is too much carving and sanding, check with =
Craig Catto at www.cattoprops.com . I have been very pleased with my =
$1650 prop (IO 360 - 200 hp). He had props at this year's Reno Air =
Races and has been building props for years. You can also order this =
through the Velocity factory.
