Prop Installing by RTSE

[hot shot]

Being it is the time of year that some of us are removing and installing prop's I think Mr. Road Trip could offer some good advice.... and questions you can ask the prop master on this thread
1. No gloves required
2. Have plenty of band-aid's
3. A tourniquet
4. A blood transfusion

Then get started with the prop work :popcorn:

Pu**y, Whats the Band Aids for? the other stuff I get (or had, or needed):yes::wrench::confused:

[roadtrip se]

Band-aids are for wussies. Just let it bleed out and throw a little bourbon whiskey on the cuts to dull the pain.

I swear, Catch 22's CNC special cut me three times through a towel putting it on and taking it off. That was one angry muther.
There is blood in the shipping box. Sorry Jim.

[Rootsy]

I prefer electrical tape....

Good thing your boat is red.:nilly: Hey Rootsy what is wrong with Duck tape.

[BUIZILLA]

when a coot launches right in front of you while prop testing at high speeds?
You duck! This did happen to me last night on LC and that sucker came up right up over my head.

Seriously though, I want to thank all of the folks here who have been shipping me props to try, four down and four more on the way. Very, very generous, and it says a lot about the spirit of this board and community.

Thank you Catch 22, Air 22, Hot Shot, Big Grizz, and Madpoodle.

[BigGrizzly]

Just feed me when I come up there.

[The Hedgehog]

I just use a little super glue if it does not stop bleeding.

Oh yeah, and that Bourbon thing that RTSE mentioned.:wink:

[catch 22]

To funny. Like I said on the phone when we meet on some far away lake somewhere just BE NICE. :lookaroun:

[Air 22]

Throttle up went out of business last week. :frown:
A sad sign of the times.

[BUIZILLA]

oh no... what great people... :boggled:

[BigGrizzly]

Who is next?

[roadtrip se]

I hope so. Matt and Julie are great people. I talked to her about a week ago, because I had some questions about Catch 22's CNC. She said they had a backlog and it would be awhile before they could get something to me, should I choose to order something. She did sound like she had a cold and was worn out. We can hope that they went and found a beach somewhere for awhile and will be back.

The web site is up but Julie hasn't posted in a while on Speedwake like she used to.:confused:

It could be that focusing on making their own props wasn't the wisest way to go. There is a lot of competition. Anyway I hope they can pull through.
