A couple more years and I'll be able to spend more time in S. FL, looking forward to it...Very cool Terry, time to move south!
Lohring:I just got some reports from the Legg Lake SAW event of strength problems with beryllium copper props. We have run props with cut and brazed blades on gas boats. However, we have broken blades on thinned props on electric boats. Be careful.

Want me to test it on my 67 boat?Got it cleaned up a couple days ago, too bad winter's come early this year (-13C the other night) and the water's hard.

Thanks for the offer but I'd feel awful if it threw a blade and tore up your boat, won't be long til the water softens up again. Did think about going to Huntsville this weekend but it's a long trip, especially on Thanksgiving weekend...Want me to test it on my 67 boat?Got it cleaned up a couple days ago, too bad winter's come early this year (-13C the other night) and the water's hard.

Been there, dun that, too much power Allen! :unsure:I ran my Picco 45R Super Modified by Frank Orlic and I never seen my torn prop 1662 profile cut 60mm "FAST" so I still figure out what cause???
Terry,
Looks good !!!
I recently did some propellers made out of Chrome Moly that were very easy to work on,
And they were tough as anything out there after heat treating. A lot of time in these little
Custom propellers. Weather looks a little wet this weekend in Flint?
Thanks For Sharing,

My driver likes the new longer boat and after a chat with Liddycoat, he ain't so skeered any more!Good luck guys, can't make this one due to a family member's graduation.
Terry, I am counting on you to pull the trigger WOT for at least one full pass.

Braze held up OK but didn't allow proper heat treating afterwards. Was gonna have one tig welded but with all the work involved making a one-off prop decided to look onto casting.Ok Terry, what am i seeing here? Are these more blade brazed on? If you are putting out enough hp to go 100mph these blades probably won't hold. Lets talk and cast those babies out of something that will take the punishment of those speeds!! 586-747-2372
Thanks, John
