Paul, there are probably more capable guys out there than me to work on the
blades since I've only done boat glassing but I would be willing to
contribute a couple of hundred US $ to material or whatever. Let me know.

That might help. I am kind of time limited so I need someone willing
to do some fabrication  experimentation. The blades do not have to be flight
capable as we are just going to test the CS mechanism on a Rotary
engine and PSRU on a test stand. If the mechanism holds up and works
on the test stand we can always make another set of flyable blades applying
the lessons learned on the test set.

All this is very worthwhile as a kit of parts should cost less than 
a $1000 as opposed to a commercial constant speed prop at $6000 to 
$10,000.
