Damn I'm tired!!!! OMG. The propeller is almost here!

Nov-01-2007

Here's the 4 blade design that I was going to go with but I thought,... what the hell. I just want to go with a one piece prop. So,...

One piece prop I will make,... the reason why I didn't want to go with the one piece design initially is because I wanted the blades to overlap for more continuous thrust. I cant get them to overlap with a one piece design. But then I thought,... is it going to make that much of a difference?!?!? Maybe,... maybe not. What I do know is that if I go with the one piece design,... it will work undoubtly.

Goodness gracious thats hot.

Time to break out the .06 acrylic. This stuff is perfect for the props,...

Here I'm turn cutting them down to a target diameter of 2". This stuff is kind of hard to turn cut because its very flexible and thin. There was a lot of shattering until I got down far enough where it was a more continuous cut.

Very cool.

I'm liking it already

See how thin it is compared to the regular 1/8" we use.

This one is going to be the template to the holes. The purpose of the holes is to shorten the area of material where the blades meeter the center. I am drilling because it's easier then scroll sawing something different. Get me?

Center punched,...

Goign to drill all of them at once. I bolted them to this wood so I have more to hold on to while drilling and because its easier to pass the bit through the last disc.

Done.

This looks cool!

Almost there!

Now I marked a couple of these like this so I can easily line them up for the cut.

Crazy dangerous buts works like a champ. The blade is actually very thin. a tiny bit smaller then 1/16". But it cuts at 1/16" because its got a slight shimmy to it.

HOT!!! Not done but HOT! OMG these are going to come out pro!!! WOW! LOL.

One word: Wicked!

tribaloverkill · 2-11-2007, 00:21

Good choice of,.... word! Wicked is good

I just wanted to tell you that you are amazing me... And I must say that this is the most amazing thing I've seen you making... And I've followd all of the stuff you've made.
These props are just sooo.. perfect.!They look even better then any factory/pro made stuff. Damn.
This is the stuff that inspires people. Now I want to build a res like this to :P.

tribaloverkill · 3-11-2007, 04:41

Started the forming jig but I'm not done yet. I have off tonight and tomorrow and monday too. So I'm goign to back after this to finish these props. I'm goign to make 2 aluminum versions of the prop too so an test the jig.

Nov-02-2007

Bought some pine. Cut the end at 45 degrees.

Then I cut them again like this,... another 45 degree cut.

Put them together and this is what you get,...

Going to make two just in case. These are the bottom pieces.

These are the top pieces. The second 45 cut is in the opposite direction to counter the 45 of the bottom pieces. They needed an extra cut too.

This is how they fit together.

This is how I made the extra cut. A simple jig to hold the little pieces.

Nice.

I have to sand the pieces down and then glue them to other piece of wood. The top and bottom once done will be about 2" thick. You'll see,... its not done.

That really means a lot man

Thanks

WOW! I love it,....

Nov-03-2007

Super glued down to another piece of wood. I was going to screw them down too,... next time.

Nice.

Drilling out the centers. 1/2".

Very good.

Very nice,...

I need a wooden tube, 1/2" round.

1/4" bolt to turn cut the tube.

Awesome.

Aluminum props,...

Now,... I have to figeout the height of this center tube. Makes a big difference.

I cleared away some of the wood around the tube to make room for the props.

I can push or pull until I get it the way I want it.

I think im goign to go with this height right here. Atleast this time around. I will definately be playing around with this again in the near future.

Aluminum test. I'm just trying to see about what shape the acrylic ones will take on,...

This jig makes these props here,...

You see how the blades are all to one side? This is not what I intended but,.... I actually like it. I can get it to sit more flush against the end caps right above the in port. It makes the prop look more like it belongs to the end cap as opposed to the actual FX. Know what I'm saying?

This is what the jig looks like when closed on a prop,....

See the prop?

That is just so cool looking,...

Closed.

Now,... just for the hell of it,... I tried lowering the middle peg in hopes that the blades would be somewhat more half way between the center ring of the prop but no,... this is what I ended up with. I have to figure out what the jig is missing that I cant do it. Something is up,...

You see how it starts high then slopes down again? I have to have larger 45 degree thingies to get the blades up higher. The top piece of the jig is pushing the blades down. The 45 degree wedges have to be higher the the stoping point has to be higher too.

I moved the peg back to get what I got before out of the aluminum version. I like this a lot better. I'm goign to keep it like this. I kind of like how its flush on one side.

Here it is on an old xPRZ FX. I have the prop upside down. DOH.

Heres's the prop before forming. It's only takes seconds to heat this stuff up and to my surprise it didnt out gas as easily as I thought it would! No bubbles!

During.

Done.

This looks cools. Both alum's back to back. Looks cool.

Flush.

This is how I want them. This looks nice. The prop looks like its a part of the end cap and not the FX. I'm going to make tiny shaft's with one end keyed. That will be the whole prop. The FX shafts will be keyed on the one side and it will mate with the keyed end of the prop.

Yea,... I love my 30 pounders, I started doing it this way.

Check it out! New colored washers! These go on each end of the reservoir.

Blue for Qhs,...

Black or tinted for DarthBeavis,...

Green,...

And clear. I'm sending all the colors to the company.

Ok,... time to clean up the jig,...

Nice,...

HA! Reminds me of the little thing inside a blender. Not the blade but the thing under the container that turns the blade.

A mouth with really sharp teeth!

My stash,... keep some, sending some away.

I made a quick video testing out the new prop

How to make an xPRZ FX explode,...
