Beautiful.  'Bout time folks producing specialty items like this took note of us 1/2A-ers...

Can we get one cut for 3-blades?

Hi, Ray - I will check into that for you.

If they come as do the larger ones, we will have them in two, three or no slots.

Looks nice.

Any word as to plans for a 1-3/4 diameter for a three blade prop?
Regular and Needle Nose.

What engines will it suit ?

Harleyman: Here are the first three spinners I evaluated along with their weights.

As far as I know, you can get any of them with two, three or no slots.

Vince - I'm not sure of the thread.  I will check on it and get back to you.

Sorry, I forgot to add - contact Brodaks for the exact availability, price, shape and configuration of the spinners.

I'm not sure if any other shapes are available other than those shown.

Brodak's site doesn't have them listed.  Personal inquiry required?

Sweet!  That 1-3/4 is perfect for the Vector.

Gents - the spinners will be on the website but not for a while. Please direct your questions by e-mail or phone.

I'll do my best to help on this end.

The thread is 3.0 MM x .5 MM. Why? Who knows?
The probelm as I see it is that there are so many different 1/2 A shaft configurations - male or female thread, 4-40, 5-40, various metric, and so on.

Even our two .049s have different threads - male and female.

Our "big" engines make it simple - just about every crankshaft thread is 1/4-28 UNF male.

So, how about some suggestions - what would you like to see?

I'll take all feedback and maybe we can come up with a reasonable solution.

Hi Bob,

As you probably remember, Veco used to sell a bag of adapter nuts to fit their tiny spinners to various 1/2A engines.  I still have an unopened bag around here.

I would say that is what could be considered.  The tip part thread stays the sae, of course, but the "shaft theread can vary.  Doesn't Tru Spin do that?
