    Prop repair

    Anyone have experience with getting dented props fixed? I'm lookin for some ballpark prices and good places... hopefully repair is a solid option as opposed to the $$ for a new prop!

      I fixed my brass ACME just a week ago. Show me a pic and I will tell you if you can fix it yourself.. or if I can help you out. If I can fix it.. I will do it for free if you pay shipping. Mine came out perfect.

              With that in mind... I'd send it to ACME.

                I got mine fixed at Nettles for $120. When I called acme about buying a refurbished prop for a secondary I told them it was done by Nettles and they said buy it!

                    Acme quoted 125 per 537, welding required increases price, and about a week for turn around... And their website is almost as fun as TIGEs! All they need is a build a prop interactive haha

                        what is the best way to pull the prop off of shaft? I got into some rocks and have bent up the brass. I took off the nut and now can not seem to budge the prop from the shaft.
