Pete, I can do the excel stuff... but not till after the fly-in...

Joe, carving a prop is surprisingly easy...(at least a non-airworthy prop). If you look at my web page under the tab that says "You'll Know"... you will see the prop that we carved... that was actually the second one we did... the first was out of balsa wood just to get a feel for how to do it (that one was really easy, and suprisingly durable...). The second we did out of poplar. For reference I used Achim Engel's "The easy way to carve a prop" guide. As I get a little more time I will post more detailed pics of the prop and gate.
