        Two of my personal favorites. I have more fun goofing around with props then racing anymore.

            Jamin,
            If you don't like the answers i give you... DONT ASK.
            GO and do some "JAMIN" somewhere else.
            Further more, Don't PM me with a retarded question that your to embarrassed to ask out in the open, and then have the gull to slam my answer. "How do you use a large pitch gauge on a small prop" give me a break. In fact don't PM me.

                This guy has been a nuisance since his first post on OSE. Can you say TROLL? Could be the X-Factor again. In fact, it probably is..

                  ABC is the brand of prop. Usually made from beryllium copper. 2.81" can't be the diameter eighter as he stated its a H5 which is 45mm or 1.78 in diameter.

                    But what boat? It does make sense! If you have a mono vs a cat, if you swap the same prop from one to the other, the pitch changes by 1.8, which is the diameter..... in mm.... times .145... Yup... I could go on forever

                    Seriously though, a good question non the less. I find it amazing what some people can do with props. Anyone can figure out what "adding pitch" is, but how its done, being tools, etc. is definitle something Id like to learn. If nothing else, it will be a great way for me to screw up a prop

                            Thats the infamous question that people ask at the pond. "Is that a boat?" No its a motorcycle you moron.

                              I sent "jamin" a pic of a Hughey pitch gauge that had been modified by Nicholas Edlund, a very well respected designer/builder of nitro riggers. "jamin" replied... " dude i don't want to see a pic of a piece of crap tin toy i like quality dude no what I'm saying dude"
                              For a guy who doesn't seem to be able to form a proper sentence, he sure has a pretty strong opinion on things he knows nothing about.
