    Prop magicians

    So my prop magician is now 1600km away in Townsville and I live in sunny ipswich a Sunday drive seems a little silly.

    I'm assuming there would be a suitably skilled person somewhere closer to Ipswich that can put a little more cup in my prop.

    Any recommendations for such a person down this way?

    Don't know about any at Ipswich, but other than as Scottar suggested, a few other options for you:

    Performance Propellers, Bulimba (talk to Colin),

    Propeller Dynamics, Burleigh.

    Maybe try Google or yellow pages?

    Cheers

    I say Solas. Always impressed with their work. Who is the magician in townsville? (I'm in townsville and send my props to solas) but if there's someone good up here...

    Re: Prop magicians

    Well just happened I was near Colin in bulimba and gave him a yell. 20mins later and the prop was done. Now I just need to get back out and test it.

    Looks like one of the trailing edges was rolled back too far which was probably causing the issues.

    Great service at performance propellers, squeezed me in to their last hour of work before going on holidays for a month.

    Thanks for the info guys.
