A wood propeller is not cut from a solid block but is built up of a number of separate layers of carefully selected many types of wood have been used in making propellers, but the most satisfactory are yellow birch, sugar maple, black cherry, and black walnut. T

he use of lamination of wood will reduce the tendency for propeller to warp. For standard one-piece wood propellers, from five to nine separate wood laminations are used.

There are usually two number stamped on the hub of the prop, one is pitch the other is length. The higher the number the longer the prop, and the more degrees of pitch.
