Beech 18, 22D30 propeller tools

Need to pull my props for the 60mo AD. Anybody know who may be selling these or may have them to borrow?

Thanks, Craig

Get with your local prop shop. They should have all the tools you need and are normally willing to let you borrow them. You may have to leave a kidney or something as deposit but they are normally very helpful.

Prop tools are definitely in the "borrow" department and not the "own" department...

Thanks, but my local prop shops don't have them. I am going to borrow from Taigh at Vintage Acft in CA. And it's a roger on the kidney... $1000 deposit and $50 per week.

I will get them drawn while they are here and make some for our museum.

Thanks, Craig

I guess I feel like we're living a charmed life here. Our shop has tools for everything from a baby Ham up to a B-29. I am fortunate to be on gratis borrowing terms...
