Unusal Props

[Rcmaster199 at aol.com]

Eddie, this was an old (20+ years) 12x5 2 blade Rev Up. Some fellows used  to 
use the prop on screaming 50-60 engines in the dark ages. Could still work  
on most 30- 40 engines today. 
 
For our application, their best function is an epoxy spreader of paint  
stirrer.

Speaking  of props
Yesterday my neighbor came over with 2 plastic bags of wooden  props
(10/bag).
They are labeled REV-UP with a 12 left of the hole , a 5  right of the hole,
and a 2 above the hole. Looking at the pitch of the prop  it definetly gets
very straight up & down out towards the tip(less  pitch).

He said a "friend" found a box containing 23 of these bags on  the side of
the road, musta fell off a truck. He was asking me what would  they be used
for & what are they worth - I guess he's thinking he can  sell 'em. I told
him I didn't know but I had no use for 230 wood props of  the same pitch.
:-))

Anyone familiar with such a prop.
I've never  seen a wooden prop of this size with varying pitch from a 5 down
to a 2.  I'm not sure that's what the marking means but it fits my most
accurate  measurement system  (TLAR)
