Spinner

Does anyone produce a spinner in the 2.5" to 3" range with a cone that is already cut to accomodate an APC 18 x 6 prop?
The backplate should be flat and solid.

Thanks,,,,,,Dave

I use APC 17x12 props a lot,and often find the hole is not drilled true. Usually means a waste of money.
Some of their other sizes might have this problem also.
