If you mean did I tear it out and magnaflux it, no.  It's a wooden prop, it 
was idling, and the engine didn't even quit when it hit.  I'm simply not 
worried about it, although I AM trying to speed up the 3100cc engine that 
will replace it.  Runout of the reinstalled prop was about 1/32" without any 
effort other than a normal torquing, which is close for KR work, as far as 
I'm concerned.  Once the new engine is in, I'll tear it out and magnaflux 
it...
