I spent some time with a prop and a file today. I got back to it after a long break. I took a X430 TFL knock off prop, detongued it, thinned it out, sharpened it, balanced then polished it with upto 600 grit wet dry. Total time- approx 4 hrs into it.
I went to Harbor Freight today. I looked at the deal Tony has, but I didnt want the hassle of a big vise. SO I bought the belt sander. It was on sale for $40 so it was painless. I removed the backing plate which will allow the belt to flex to the shape of the blade. Sure I will have to do the one face manually, but thats only a little work.
