RE: wooden props?
there are finger balancers and magnetic ones top flight makes a pretty good one it suspends a rod that holds the prop between two magnets on a stand then you can check to see what blade is heaviest then you can lightly sand the blade to level them out .
what I have found is there is allot of difference between brands in balance the wood ones I have checked have been real close, allot of the plastic composite ones are way off
