Default RE: Reaming a Prop

I once had a Graupner 3 blade prop given to me that had been reamed to a larger size than I needed. I was able to use 2 short pieces of brass tubing, one inside the other, to fashion a sleeve to make up the difference. Just find the tubing size to fit the prop shaft and work it from there; may need two or three layered sizes and the prop reamed a bit larger to get a good fit.
