I've seen folks use a leather glove as well. Just mind that back edge of the APC props if you don't sand it down when new when you're hand starting - sharp as a knife if not dulled a little. I was hand flipping my prop and it bounced off the compression and rotated backwards and the edge stopped in the edge of my index finger. Cut about 1/3 in to the tip of my finger and nail. [:@]
