Watching an artist take raw materials and work them into a piece of art is an entertaining process. You doing that to an engineered piece of art, that is a functional part of an airplane ✈️ elevates what you are creating well beyond that. Thank you for producing videos that are a pleasure to watch.
@@CulverProps ⚠️ God has said in the Quran: 🔵 { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 ) 🔴 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 ) 🔵 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 ) 🔴 But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 ) 🔵 And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 ) ⚠️ Quran
The last video I saw from another company in the states, they used a cnc and as I was scrubbing through I see they mentioned sanding on a drum sander 2 hrs later...incredible, even the labor intensive stuff is done by hand... Thats the kind of stuff Im willing to pay extra for
Love the fact you have old worn in tools, and not Festool everything, like every other woodworker has on CZcams. I'm a Joiner/ Cabinet/furniture maker and appreciate the large amount of handwork you do, not cnc routered, you obviously know your stuff! Brilliant...
Thank you so much. What works well is not always popular, lol. It’s a therapeutic process and I like the extra quality control I can give by doing it this way.
I love the way straight grain maple gives you the guides for shaping a smooth radius and taper on a piece. The Guitar necks I make usually are so close as to only need slight profile adjustments for individual feel. Nice work as always. Take care
Thanks for sharing. What a pleasurable CZcams rabbit hole. Popped up on my home page, I assume because of my interest in wood working videos, but I have never seen a wooden propeller made. Unique trade and craftsmanship.
Nice work. I've made hundreds of props, all of them for model aircraft use for competition models, mostly for racing. Many of them were molded but some were carved from solid like in the vid. For the racing models I not only balanced the props for 15,000 rpm but I also matched the pitch distribution along the length of each blade.
Very nice! Love the colours of the wood. I’ve made one propeller so far (cherry) and it looks great… didn’t have the skill for bandsawing close to the hub so I used a variety of rasps, spoke shaves and small planes and it worked out really well…doesn’t take much time at all and you can go 1 mm at a time for extra care.
I just needed to reach out and say this ; Hear is the thing, I have no interest in Planes as such, unless its a Spitfire!!, I can not fly, And half the time when your mentioning names and numbers of planes your Props are going to be fitted on too, Its like wooosh, right over the top of my head. However..... How I came upon your Channel is still a mystery to me, But the thing is I look forward so much to your content and explanations, I find it strangely satisfying and soothing to watch you work your magic and your skill levels are off the charts. It relaxes me, And for that I just wanted to thank you. There are very few things that can relax me the way you are able to do while watching you turn lumps of wood into works of art. THANK YOU. Take care and Stay safe. Love and Respect from North London UK.
when you added that post-it, and the prop stopped...my jaw dropped. jimmy's world just did a How It's Made for wooden props, and the people in the comments were talking about you, so i decided to check it out. so cool. subscribed!
WOW….fabulous work. As an old Air Force Prop Mechanic, I was amazed at your technique of building props out of wood. I pass through Rolla on occasion and would love to see your shop. Please let me know if you give tours!
you are amazing, the great skill you have, i love your videos, you dont make them everyday [ this is what makes them so good ] and your music choices are great, not loud or annoying. thank you so much for the effort you put into the videos tell how you do it
What you do is what the EAA is supposed to be all about. I wish they'd return more to their roots with promoting experimentation, fabrication, engineering, design, etc. more. Seeking out various industry experts to help put together more books on all aspects of aeronautical engineering, research, latest ideas, etc. But it's good to see people recognizing and showcasing the work you do.
I'm watching from far away from Japan, a propeller that is very beautiful whenever I see it, I want to make such a propeller someday, oh! It's a great job, even though it doesn't have an aircraft.
i used to carve my own model airplane props because i had no money to buy them after they broke. brings back memories. you need to give 3m mesh paper a try.
Im gonna be hypoxic by the time l finish watching you finish on that bandsaw! At first l was like "Well that looks simple enough". Then you tilted it on it's side and just started freehanding/eyeballing those blends. Then l realized l hadn't breathed in about a minute and a half!
Me: How do you make a propeller, Alaina? Alaina: You just glue some boards together. Then you saw and sand away everything that doesn't look like a propeller. I know, I know. Old joke, but she makes it real.
I worked in an Eaton owned facility in New York one time and couldn’t figure out why the entire floor was made out of small 4x4 blocks of wood placed vertically in the floor. When I asked why I was told that they made P-38 propellers there during WWII, and the wood floor saved props that were inadvertently dropped.
Your free hand maching skills are pure craftsmanship....brilliant ..
I truly appreciate the band saw skills.The balancing act (literally) is mystifying. She knows exactly what needs attention.

My paternal grandfather hand carved propellers for British WW1 aircraft, I have his spoke shaves in my workshop.
Great Craftsmanship. Always enjoy your videos and attention to detail. Thank You.
I was expecting a cnc operation yet this was hand carved on a band saw and drum sander, I'm astonished. So good. God bless
Thank you!

2 mins in your freehand bandsaw angle cuts curled my toes you ran it so close, but so accurate. Best woodwork I've seen.
Just watching this is therapeutic. Can’t imagine having the talent to make something so functional and pretty.
Just started watching your excellant talents again, beautiful. Keep on smiling.

What a gorgeous prop!
That was great. You are really good with the saw and sanding. Bravo👍
I love these full length videos. :))
You have many talents and skills, but wow, you are an ACE on that bandsaw!
Thank you!
You are very talented. Your work is truly an art.
All your Props look so fantastic. You are so talented.
Wow came across your videos and thought I would love to replace my boring ceiling fan with one of these pieces of art. Amazing 😮
You are like a surgeon with that bandsaw!!! Amazing work!

Awesome job. Beautiful propeller
My prop build lady back at it again. I would like to see it after it's stained and sealed. Love your work.
Thank you, Alaina great job Would love to see one completely finished and ready to fit to the aircraft.👍👍
What a doll. I could watch you for a life time!
Your freehand skills with the bandsaw are amazing!
That's great. 👍 Congratulations!

She TRULY TRULY loves her ART!
WONDERFUL !

Thank you! Lol
Beautiful propeller with beautiful hands.
Being a watchmaker I am impressed with your workmanship and wish to join your workshop. Thank you.
You're amazing on the bandsaw. I had a gulp at first watching you cut out the hub area . Your gramps has to be very proud of you as he watches on
Thank you! Sometimes I make myself gulp. Lol I always worry I have cut too deep
Really awesome skills for sure!!
you are amazing, the great skill you have, i love your videos, you dont make them everyday [ this is what makes them so good ] and your music choices are great, not loud or annoying.

OUTSTANDING WORKMANSHIP!!!
You make it look so Easy, I dread to think what it would look like if I tried it.
What an artist.....If I ever get my ultralight it will have your Culver prop.
You do good work!
Isso não se trata de uma hélice mas sim de uma obra-de-arte! Parabéns!!!
Insane level of craftmanship.
It’s beautiful.
Friday evening prop lessons !

Jerry Rosa sent me. Beautiful work.
Thank you. Jerry is a good family friend. 😊
Magnifique travail ! Une Hélice Bois faite à la main !👏👏👏🌹🌹
Real Nice work, for what it is worth, you have my vote of confidence .
Anybody with sufficient training can operate a cnc machine. Hand finishing requires an artist's touch.
Thank you!
A true artisan. This lady is amazing.
You make it look easy! Not fair!
As pretty as the lady! 🤩 I really enjoyed the cheese slicing at the hub with the bandsaw!🤗
AMAZING ! ! !
No rings on your hands. Good safety planning. The maple and mahogany really pop. Thanks
Вот это рукодельница👍👍👍
Wow...josss tenan iki...mantaaaaaaap
Im gonna be hypoxic by the time l finish watching you finish on that bandsaw! At first l was like "Well that looks simple enough". Then you tilted it on it's side and just started freehanding/eyeballing those blends. Then l realized l hadn't breathed in about a minute and a half!
Lol!! Thank you! The bandsaw is one of my favorite parts
I really love curves crafted in wood. its so beautiful compared to angles. I dont know anything about airplane props.
clearly. 😂
Nice job.
Thanks for sharing.
Золотые руки и очень красивая.
Только в телевизоре такую и можно встретить.
Подписка✌✌✌.
Mesmerizing. I see a lot of props from the past in the dancelike movements that go into creating these marvelous works. Thank you!
prettiest thing made out of wood ever, nice!
Art !
Good stuff!! Thx for keeping the world company. It's a lonely planet!
Wow , absolutely beautiful , and that propeller you made propeller aint hard to look at either ...
Beautiful
Шикарная работа.
Vacum suction very important in wood working otherwise all over place dust and smoke
New subscribed from Somalia
I SPY DUAL GLUE - 👀 🤣 🤣 🤣
That was really very interesting, captivating.
Thank you!
@@CulverProps 💞
Good job 😊
Very impressive, mad skills on the band saw. Only tool in 50 years of every day wood working that bit me!
It can sure get you quick
Yes It can, by the way Jerry Rosa is the one that told me about you
hola saludos desde Colombia
Nice workwomenship:)
Try getting and oscillating drum sander. It moves up and down a bit .it will save you time and sand paper.
very good i'm waching you from iraq
Bonito trabajo preciosa 😘😘😻😻
Outstanding
Just wow.
Me: How do you make a propeller, Alaina?
Alaina: You just glue some boards together. Then you saw and sand away everything that doesn't look like a propeller.
I know, I know. Old joke, but she makes it real.
🤣
I worked in an Eaton owned facility in New York one time and couldn’t figure out why the entire floor was made out of small 4x4 blocks of wood placed vertically in the floor. When I asked why I was told that they made P-38 propellers there during WWII, and the wood floor saved props that were inadvertently dropped.
I would love to have one like that with a clock in it
