Default Propeller Balance Master

If it's a wood prop it will likely have a center hole.

A balance tool for that is fairly easy to make.

Find / machine an aluminum round to fit the hole and
bore a center hole in the round for a 3/8" dia steel
rod (axle).

Put the plug in the prop and poke the rod through the
plug.

I used my open vice jaws for a balance fixture.
Worked swell.
