    Epoxy on one blade to repair prop but not the ither

    Well, if not balanced that bad to start. Most likely they won't refab that blade. I have a 3 blade with some scallops on two blades not sure if they fix it? If I did the carbon repair, I definitely make sure the weight of each blade matched.

    N e one ever unbolted gso480 gearbox?

    when you are building say a machine like we make at work you press the bushing in the hole and ream the inside of the bushing to fit the shaft. For one you want it to stay fully contacted to the hole if there's rotation you want that on the inside surfaces.

    Hello, I was told this is where an idiot would come to get advice on building a mini airboat ?

    A go cart can be fun and inexpensive to run. Well 6061 is not good for bending 5052 is good for that. The only thing I would be concerned about is oysters against the bottom. I ran my 1950 StarCraft 15 ft for years over them not a thick bottom either.
