How do you store your props at home?

We all have a collection of props. Some for diffrent applications and some for diffrent boats. I myself have 2 boats completely diffrent prop needs for each of them. I store mine upright on a shelf in my shop.Show us how you store your prop collection

I store them on pieces of all thread rods I have mounted in 2x4's that is mounted on a wall. I need to sell every last one too being I can't boat anymore.

I agree with all above statements and have already started the selling part.

You have more props than a prop shop....Nice collection tho.

It's amazing what you accumulate over the years. Hanging em on the allthread saved me a lot of space and other than collecting dust, lot's of dust, they are pretty safe when you mount them high out of reach. I decided it was stupid keeping stuff I would likely never use so I posted a few of them here and sold some of them. Post em up boys and let someone get some use.

I've got three boats one Etec, one Yamaha and one Merc. They are all slow so I always think a different prop will do the trick. Well ............... not really! Easily 25 sitting doin nuthin on a 30' long stainless shelf. Go figure

Start with a 2x6 (or 4).
Counter bore a 7/8“ diameter hole 1“ deep with a forstner bit @ 16” o/c, starting 8” in from the end of the board.
Cut 7/8” hardwood dowel @ 6”- 7” long.
Dab of glue in the counterbored hole, tap in the dowel and secure with a #8 screw from the back side.
Originally done for small shaft props but works just fine for fatshaft or flotorque props with the hub removed.
I’m not sharp enough to figure out how to post pics....if someone sends me an email or cell number I’ll send ya some pics to post.
Cheers.
