        I guess it depends on the damage. Prop repair isn’t that expensive. Most of the time it’s worth the effort.

          they are hard to get. with that said they can be repaired. don’t throw it away. give or sell it IF you don’t repair it. Dave McKinney does good work. 1 706 319 1960 is his ########

            Where I worked, the prop shop sent their guy every week to pick-up & deliver. That brass prop would come back repaired, polished, and looking like brand new. Heck yes, worth it. Likewise, aluminum props, but once the paint is knocked off you can see the repair. Actually, the repaired area is stronger than the original aluminum.
