This is a thread to document the process of making a Cummins spinner fit the profile of Catto props.
I received the Cummins spinners today from Australia. The hopes are to set up a 2 and a 3 blade configuration for future customers. My initial impressions of the spinner were:
1) This thing is way more sturdy than the fiberglass one.
2) The walls are thicker than what I expected.
3) Man this would look nice polished.
From a conversation with Allan he told me that the spinner would need to have the cut outs flared for strength. From looking at the spinner I would not think that was necessary. The one from Vans is not as sturdy and it does not have a flare. But there is a reason I don't make spinners. I don't know. Allan can you talk to the reason?
Below are some very infant pictures.
