   I'm getting ready to build a cowl for my Dragonfly and realize I
need a
   spinner to blend into.  Does anyone have a 10" to 12" spinner
they are
   willing to part with?  It's going on a three blade warp drive prop.
   Thanks

   It is easier to build a cowl for the rotary if you use a
   larger spinner. You can borrow my 16 inch for a mold Randy.
   I also have a smaller one if you insist :)

A 16" spinner would cover half my prop!  I may take you up on the
smaller one though, do you know what size it is?   I have a bunch of
stuff to return to you so I'll be getting out your way in the near
future.

Thanks,
Randy

I think you're exaggerating a little bit :) Did you get the warp drive
blades and hub? I think you will find 16 inches is about right :)
However you can use the smaller one I have for a mold. My guess is
12 inches. Come over about 1 PM. I should be out there about then.

Warp Drive blades but Ken Welter built the hub.

Sensenich now makes better blades of the same hub design
but they have more twist for higher speeds up to 200 MPH.

Warp Drive blades are for airplanes that are slower than 120 MPH.
