Resin casting.

[Clunkmeister]

So my Fisher September Fury kit is missing one of the prop blades.  Tony mentioned that Sea Furies reengined with Pratt power use a Skyraider prop, so I looked.  The Trumpeter prop isn’t even close, and the ZM prop is close, but a touch too short, too wide by a smidge, and has the wrong shaped tip.

So I get to somehow attempt my first resin casting job.

Question: can a good mold be made from a resin piece?  I need an exact copy....

Could one be printed?

I already checked, and so far, no. A bunch of compound curves make it tough. It needs to be exact. One different prop blade will stand out huge.

Did my Gotha 4 bladers in metal after a few minor resin casting issues.

I think making another one to fit from scratch is out , easy enough for one blade to be cast..

Might be better to just cast all four, that way the issue of one looking different would go away
