Sir, that is a work of art! I have been watching your thread and amazed at your ability to craft the detailed parts. I'd love to have your shop, but even then, I would need your years of experience to be able to complete such a project. If I wore a hat, i would tip it to you. Thanks for the video and the inspiration.

Duck: Thank you for the kind words! 
As for the shop, it is all new. I built it last year. It is the culmination of a lifetime desire to have a small shop. The machines are new too. I am just learning. So, be aware that it takes little experience or practice to start making things. That is one thing I always desired so strongly, was to be able to make some small parts for models. I am a total rookie. You look around the internet, and see the amazing things 'true machinists' make on these small hobby machines and it will blow you away!

Kmot,
Have read the whole post but did not find the prop size (dia/pitch) you have on the boat. So, if you want to break the secret, please let us know.
Thanks.

Kaoma, it is a Graupner 40mm two blade carbon prop and I think the pitch is 1.4
There have been several updates since my last post here on RCU. Actually, the main thread I have is on RCG
If you decide to take a look, better get a pot of coffee!
