Old Prop Hub

[Sandrews]

I've read about folks using an old prop hub for cowl fitment. Anyone got one to loan out? I'll pay for shipping and return it when the work is complete.

Thanks
Seth

Is there a prop shop near you? If so, they will likely have a giant pile of scrap hubs laying around somewhere.

Or...

I made a wooden disk the size of the spinner backplate and then used stand offs to position it properly in relation the the prop flange...

Flyboys has a new tool for cowl fitment they introduced at SnF. I ordered it last week $375. I will keep you posted on how well it works. You buy it outright, then the rental is $100 for the first month. then $50/mo. thereafter. Balance refunded when you return it. Looks like a nicely machined gizmo.
