I made two jigs for the repair tissue, built extra large, just in case ...

But a great day to be in the park all day with "Trapper".

It only got 10 feet off the ground with one 12" loop of 1/8" rubber. I had three 10 second perfect flights downwind on a very slight breeze, into perfect soft landings on long thick grass - then I wound the prop too many times ... busted the rubber - the nose block hanging and piled up rubber in rear fuse and tissue damage in rear fuse.

mlriley - you inspired me to put in new rubber, a downthrust angled balsa plate on the front, and a metal "rubber hook" for the prop hook to rubber connection, into my 22" Sig Cabinaire. It was still balanced.

The other side of the planks is painted Bronze Metallic. There are three coats of acrylic brush on paint on each side of eight planks = 48 sides were painted.

I cut out eight balsa prop lamination planks - 10" X 1 1/2" X 1/16" - to paint up for wood grain, and then glue them stacked on top of each other to make a balsa prop block to carve the Axial prop for the 200 HP BMW engine.

This is the other Axial prop made for the 160 HP Mercedes engine for a Fokker D7.

I just figured out the "Snipping Tool" to get a good image of the Axial prop for the 200 HP BMW engine for the Fokker D7 - this is the one I drafted.

This was the only diagram I could find - I took ruler measurements off of this diagram, got out my calculator, and scaled these measurements to draw the 9 1/8" Fokker D7 Axial prop for the 200 HP BMW engine
