How they're made Hartzell Propellers

[@charlesmellinger4710]

Now I understand why it cost so much money. Very interesting!

[@nightshadekelly]

Are the edges of the blades sharp?

[@Whittikay]

kind of, it depends on where on the propeller blade you're feeling. It's quite smooth towards the hub (center) and gradually gets thinner and sharper as you move down to the tip of the blade.

Erik Forys. Cool

[@Whittikay]

yeah

[@snorttroll4379]

does it ever get razor sharp?@@Whittikay

[@DrivingGod04]

​@@snorttroll4379 nope, they go through much vibration and stretching during flight they'd crack being too thin
