There was  pretty good program circulating a while back - Nigel Bates or something like that.  Folks swear by the props it produces.  It was free IIRC.  Contact Al Wick at alwick@juno.com

Is anyone interested in building their own prop? I'm contemplating on buying the Propoptimizer Pro program from Bates Engineering. One inputs plane data and HP / RPM figures etc, and it spits out coordinates for templates to carve a prop. http://home.earthlink.net/~bateseng/prop.htmonly drawback - $295 for the program.Is anyone interested in sharing that investment like buying it for a "rotary club" - I'm not talking about making a bunch of copies of it but some serious sharing as in one person can use it only at any given time, however that works.Marko
