Hi I liked your web site, IM converting an Echo 21cc motor, I m sure the flywheel nut is 8MM any way how can I mount a prop the most simple way possible, I don’t have a lath , just a drill dremel and hacksaw,can I buy a threaded collar and use a longer bolt on one end?

a dremel and hacksaw probably won't be enough to do anything accurate...
i doubt a threaded collar would have enough area bearing against the flywheel to keep it straight when tightened...
the thread size is M8x1.25 so a hub for anothr engine with the same size shaft should work. think i remember someone on this forum offering made-to-order hubs for $15?

I am the one who had the post for the $15.00 made to order Hubs. I machine my hubs from 6061 Aluminum and polish them after machining. I Can have you a hub with a M8 x 1.25 thread for $15.00 plus shipping.
