Default Prop Extension???

Can anyone suggest where I would be able to get a prop extension for a DA 85?

I am looking for about 2 inches in length.

Cheers

Thanks Brad,

I have looked at that, but unfortunately with the exchange rates $Aussie to $US and postage that works out pretty expensive for something as simple as a prop extension.

Cheers

BOLTMAN,

These are easy to make for someone with a lathe and a drill press. If you don't have access to these machines check your local phone book for a machine shop in your area. They should be able to whip one up for you quickly (when they can fit it into their schedule, of course) and without charging too much. I made one for my DA50 in just over a half-hour.

You can see the spacer as it rests behind the spinner backplate.

Darrel's prop extension $45 and postal shipping $12.30 would accumulate to 78.81 AUD still to expensive? How much is the machine shop hour in down under?
