Hey Paul,

Is there anything that I can do to help you in the Prop Project?

I have a 3-axis NC mill (42" Bridgeport with Analam controller) that

doesn't have

to much on it now (amazingly, I have finished up most of the current

projects that

I started! very rare! ;-) A simple surface grinder and lathe round out

the stable.

Later,
Blake

I don't know. Butch, do you need some parts made?

Can you make some of these plates for us Blake?
It would be really really cool if you could pocket these patterns
out of the motor plate. I got the dimensions.

Cosmetically it would look very professional and would add a tremendous
amount of credibility to rotary engines in airplanes. What we have
now looks a bit crude and home made. Not to mention the two or three
pounds of weight savings. I think you could get as much as $300 for
these things. I'll send you mine so you can use that as a prototype.

Also a two piece end housing like this might be a good project.

Blake,
Sign me up for a plate! ( Mine would need minor changes-If you do it!)

How many others would be interested in a PSRU/plate like this?
