Default Best stall vane protector ever!

My patented device is a yellow tennis ball! Take a box cutter and cut an "X " about 2 inches long each leg. Squeeze the tennis ball which will open the slot and place over vane. Tried to get it registered as an iPhone App but was turned down. If you use it, you are required to see my great paint job at AirVenture 2012.

I think I will grind a nice small radius (or is it radii as there are two) to eliminate the scratches. A flag is not a bad idea either as when cleaning the bugs off the leading edge I almost always forget to duck when I get to the vane.
