Geez Mark, Lighten up. When you said,? I find it interesting that you're building your own composite airplane, with composite spars which you apparently designed, and you're worried about the spinner...? I was a bit surprised at your ire. I was just being dramatic, tongue in cheek, when I said, ?do not trust myself fabricating a part that is required to spin thousands of times a minute.? Much that same as you when you said,? I'm also reluctant to give myself the opportunity to kill any teenagers other than my own.? I?m sure I could fab my own spinner, just wondering if there is a commercially available one that would be almost as good (No WAY it could be as cool as your spinner ;->).
I?ve flown behind a prop I fabricated myself (using a CNC router at a friend?s company making production solid body guitars). It worked great and is still flying as far as I know. I do not recommend it, and I would not do it again. Hey, let?s get together at Oshkosh and chew the fat? I?d love to hear about this econo-plane you are designing. Take care, Scott
