    Getting some old projects completed in time for the big Cabin Fever event -- a bit over a month to go.

    Ran it throught Google Gemini-

    For a propeller template, the most straightforward and contextually relevant interpretation is that 36^\circ and 48^\circ are specific propeller pitch angles that the tool is designed to set or measure. 36^\circ: A finer (lower) pitch setting.
    ​48^\circ: A coarser (higher) pitch setting.

    The other numbers (5, 6, 8) are for indexing based on the number of blades.

    ****! I don't know! Crap comes into my head and the hands obey -- I'm often left out of that loop.

    For example, I got up from my hedious nap late afternoon ready to work and found that I had already uploaded some shop photos of today's work... I don't remember that!

    And sometimes I can hear Ellie in some dark corner giggling and shaking her head at me when I make a dumb move in the shop.

    Gett'n old is a roller-coaster ride. Long as I don't **** the bed, I'm good with it!

    36, 48... I don't have a clue (lottery numbers?)

    In the absence of a lathe -- and the semi-permanent foot-print it takes in your shop, here's a viable alternative:
