Copper at a record high and the projects just wont stop. We got people fist fighting over every little scrap.
Don't have any pictures, life is moving so fast right now.
Here is roughly $8,000 worth of stainless steel though.

A serious question for Erat.
Can you feel the difference between the 3 and 4 blade props?
Is there some logic between 3 and 4 bladed designs?
A silly question...
What did the two props do that made you take away the super nice foam fitted cases for them?
Serious question. Yes absolutely. Huge difference. Plus all of these are different diameter and pitch and rake. It's a dark science. Because these are technically props for a "surface drive" they only run less than half the diameter in the water. Sometimes only an inch or two is in the water. If you can add an extra blade it increases the amount that runs in the water. It provides lift for the *** of the boat and with a strong engine it can make the boat lift out of the water at the exit of each turn. The downside is that you run out of top end. Obviously that's a very high level explanation. There are a lot of different factors to run one over the other. Course size for example. Boat weight. Wind conditions. Ect. Offshore boats run 6 and 8 blade props to lift the *** end.
The silly question. Those props are bolted to the bottom of the box. So they don't need the foam to hold them in place. Just haven't gotten around to doing that with the other ones.
