Hi everyone. I was wondering what do you use to bend props like if they get dinged up or the tips bent for some reason. Do you use those round nose needle nose pliers?

Thanks

Glenn
 
Glenn,

I use a set of pliers similar to these with a ball bearing welded to one side. They work great for fine tuning props.

BTW, be sure to grind the groves on the opposite jaw flat as to not score your props. Good luck.

Thanks everyone. I just ordered some pliers from Maston's RC Marine. I think they will work well. Alan your stuff looks really nice - I may contact you on the anvil and gage.
