Making Balsa Wood Propellers
Check that it is centered on the diameter. If it is off, try to figure out what went wrong. You can sand a dowel from some balsa of the same density as the prop block and glue it in the hole. Wait for the glue to dry completely, trim it close with a razor blade and sand it with fine sandpaper..Carving Large Rubber Model Propeller It 's not every day that one hand carves a 14.5in rubber model .Cheap and easy. You just need some wood and a heat source. Useful for a fan/model boat or plane..Basically if you can build the rest of the model then you can carve a propeller. propeller is constructed using 12mm 1/2" thick sheet rather than a large block of balsa. Fix them in position with templates made from a piece of scrap wood..
you how to carve a propeller from a block of balsa or other wood. It is, but like building an airplane, it is done one simple step at a time..Years ago I made a 2 blades propeller using very thin layers of wood, the wood used to plate furniture para hacer hlices en madera balsa:" in previous link..
