Protecting a 3 blade prop during lower cowl removal

I'd looked at other products for protecting my Catto but they were way expensive. These neoprene knee supports were found on Amazon. $12 for the pair.

7mm thick

Buy a used wetsuit on Ebay or Craigslist and cut the legs off. Inexpensive but good prop protection sleeves.
