Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List:Taper shaft hub removal and prop carvingPieters, Thanks to the infor from Chuck, Terry and Walt, I got my prop hub off the tapered crankshaft without too much trouble. I had to put a shim in the snapring to get some pressure on it but it came off pretty easy. Do they still use pliobond to put in crank seals? My next question is : does someone have plans for making a machine to carve a prop from an existing prop. I have some nice sliding bearing that seem like a good place to start. ?Any help will be appreciated. Should bea good way to spend the winter.
