        Thanks. Not to blow my own horn but those 447/3 set are a work of art in my opinion.

          The 442 are beautiful too! I promised myself I'll keep an eye for you selling more props from now on!

          But I think I have enough props for now...

            They were my friend, I think I owe you an apology for dropping them at the bottom of a pond.



            Any chances that you'll make another set at some point?

                I've been thinking about a way to retrieve them, but other than using a giant magnet I don't see how.

                There is a lot of mud at the bottom of that pond, I could try and fish them with a net but I'm afraid of what could come up instead.

                  How did you manage to loose both props at the same time?

                  That really sucks!

                      I can understand your frustration, I've been there a couple of times I lost my props. I was also thinking of using a big magnet to retrieve it after a friend tried to dive it but unsuccessful. Don't know if using metal detector can be useful.

                        Since shafts, drive dogs and prop nuts are still attached a large (2-3") magnet should in theory work, but it would take quite a bit to go around the pond with it.

                        I would need an inflatable kayak too...

                        But since it's raining today, I'm wondering if they moved around from the center of the pond... I think they are gone for good.
