Just some slight tearing, and thankfully the customer gave us some time to fix it. Should be a fun welding challenge

Only one blade had this burning, but I radiused all the edges just in case. I think some numbnuts at a boat yard squared the leading edge on blade 3

Little crack in the trailing edge of a small-mid sized prop. Wish I could weld it but the customer gave us too tight of a deadline, so it is what it is

I just love the way these props spin up. Too bad every other moment with them is trying to make sure they don't slip out of the straps lol

Had to propcoat these little guys, which was both fun and terrifying. Used the opportunity to teach the new guy how to propcoat and he damn near fucked everything up

Not sure why we got multiple irreparable props this week; might be drunk boating lol. Had to clean and measure this lil dude to find a replacement

These came in with the veem strip ground into and we had to explain to the guy why we couldn't fix it. Felt a bit sorry
