You don't even need to write the engine compressions in the engine log, if you don't want to.
I keep my completed condition inspection check list with my logs as a record of what I performend and found. Anyone who may purchase my plane in the future is going to get a file folder of those things.

The FAA does not use the term "log books" in the FARs.
They say "maintenance records" - your file folder qualifies...
How you keep your records is basically up to you - but with restrictions on computer records...

You guys must be talking about the AIRCRAFT logbook.
None of my planes have ever had an airframe logbook.
Where can I purchase an airframe logbook?

May not be an official requirement but the A&P I use signs the condition inspection in my airframe, engine, and prop logbooks.

"Fixed-pitch propeller aircraft do not have a Propeller Logbook because the propeller is considered part of the airframe."

Sensenich thinks otherwise and ships you a propeller log book with their certified props...
If you get an experimental prop, you get to print out your own log book....

C/S maintenance recording
I have the Hartzell C/S prop from Van's that came with a prop log book. Other than major items such as a prop/hub overall, what would you normally record in the prop log book during a condition inspection?

I record the inspections called for in the prop manual. Similarly, I record the inspections Superior called for in my engine log. Those inspections are based on flight hours and don't necessarily coincide with the condition inspection. Like Bill, I keep my condition checklist, which has a section for findings and corrective actions taken. If any item is major (like the time I replaced a starter and ring gear), then I record it in the appropriate logbook but the condition inspection sign-off from my airworthiness only goes in the aircraft log.
