I'm on the look out for a few 25mm prop spacers soon for at least three Suzuki's that have gone SPOA
Now as I'm quite a tight/poor/miserable git, they seem quite expensive to me for what they are.
They appear to be made from CNC'd aluminium.
SO.....
as I program CNC machines for a living and have three of them standing not 10 yards from where i'm sitting right now I thought I might give it a go myself
Looks like all I need to do is pick up some aluminium round bar the correct diameter, do some measuring and a wee bit programming and I can make my own for under a tenth of the price...
Anyone any thoughts on that? pitfalls? problems? ridiculing? funny jokes?

Re: Prop Spacers
I would suggest trying some 410 props, they are longer than samurai props as the housing of the diff is shorter on the 410 
Either way they are simple to make, I'm pretty sure Trotter knocked some up for my mate Karl ages ago.

Re: Prop Spacers
Yeah I have a couple of them.
My problem (if it is a problem) is that I have 5 Samurais and i'm trying to keep them all the same.
Some are SPOA, some are stock and I have a pile of spare Samurai props, so if I can use spacers and keep the stock props then they can all use the same spares.
