Default spinners

Hey,
I just got myself a Dave Brown 2 3/4 inch aluminium spinner. The problem is that the precut holes for the prop are too small, as I'll be using a 16x11 prop. Any ideas on how to inlarge them, cause I don't want to wreck this spinner.
Thanks,
Robert.

Contact Dave Brown products. They should be able to supply you with a custom cut out for your prop at a nominal charge. Bill

Finnished now, I used a hack saw blade to get the rough shape, then the rotary burr in the Dremel to smoothen it out. Took 10 mins.
