Suggestion needed: Propeller/Screw for 1/350 IJN Yamato

[Sgmartz]

Like the title says, looking for brass or other metal propellers for my 1/350 IJN Yamato build. Looks like there were some out there at one point but it seems like they are no longer made. Any suggestions or direction would be much appreciated!

 

Admins - not sur if this was the right place to post...

Don't know if these would work?

Are they for show or "to go" (R/C controlled model)?

If for show, do you have any knowledge of the details or dimensions of the props?

They could be easily 3D resin printed and painted.

Thx for the replies. Yes I have some from the original kit but was hoping to get some made in brass. Just for show.

Nice finds, the hood screw’s work perfectly

 Glad I was able to help and hopefully those are in stock. Locating hard to find electronic components and military aircraft hardware and subassemblies was the job I retired from so this is kinda up my alley, so to speak.

These guys hand make any prop you want - I've used them and they are excellent
