Interesting. I would think there would be a balancing step at the end but if you're doing it this way and getting away with it, so will I since it's for personal use..

Or chopped off

[@veracant]

What process did you use to add metal back to the prop?

[@danielwilcox6212]

I didn't see how it was balanced for weight and proper pitch....

[@generalpropeller2961]

Hi Daniel! We are always hiring and would be happy to train you properly! 🙂

[@Anthony-du3he]

Is this cheaper than just buying a new prop🤔 doesnt seem like it

[@mDaWg0]

Yes, when good propellers can cost $3000 and your boat has 2 engines. This will only cost a few hundred as opposed to buying new.
