for out of the hole and top end speed is it better to go up or down in size have 14 x 21 3 blade buying ur 14 x 21 4 blade

I would stay the same size, it was like night and day. The 4 blade was good out of hole and gave lots of top end, I have a 20 ft trophy 4.3 and used a 19" pitch 21 was to much burned lots of fuel

Same pitch with added blade will improve hole shot, minimize bow rise, and help slow speed control. Top end probable will not change.

I only have my butt dyno and subjective opinion, however a 4 blade prop has 33% more water surface area to grip, and that can't be a bad thing. I also added a Sting Ray hydrofoil, and my boat (21 ft Chapparal, Volvo 5.7L 280HP outdrive) has never felt better. It hole shots flatter with a skier, stays on plane at almost 500 RPM less, at the cost of maybe 1 or 2 MPH top speed. I'll take that trade every time.

For a quicker hole shot go down in pitch, quicker speed up... however they say if you are changing from a 3 blade to a 4 blade you should go down 2 in pitch to keep the same performance you have now, not sure if this is true or not.

it is suggested to go down 2 in pitch when going from a 3 blade to a 4 blade. I did not. I stayed the same. Lost about 5 mph but gained out of the hole and stays on plane at lower speed. Good for pulling the little ones around

It really depends on the size router bit, and the kind of work you do. It is plenty for hand-held work and most router table work. Larger bits like raised panel bits require a larger router like the 3-1/4 hp. If it is going to stay in a router table I would go with the larger router.

I would go up a size for more high tech setups. I have this one in a 75 and movement starts to fizzle around 2/3 across the tank.

Been Q'n for a long time, and there is never enough room, you always want to add more goodies. I have the 18.5 and am goin for the 22.5 this spring. The 18.5 is very good, but when you spend all day smokin you want to get as much out of it as you can. The end products go very fast.....

What you have to understand is that the smaller the blade the faster the RPM's are. Look at the specs for your machine and follow what is recommended. If you don't have the manual for the machine I would go in the middle with the 9". Other thing is the thickness you can cut. Larger blade will cut a thicker tree or brush.

I did buy the 16 inch and use it mostly for small projects- whirlygigs-banks-etc, I have run into several situations where I could have used the extra depth. I end up doing some juggling of the piece to get it done but the 21 would have made it easier.

Buy a quality unit such as Align TREX or Eflight Blade. The 450 size is good to learn on, so stay in that size range. The Hausler parts are much lower quality and when you fix it you will realize the difference. I own two of these and neither flies anymore.

Not sure it was for my dad he used a 21 speed for it but i dont think it would matter to much which speed it is.

It depends on what size blades and how often you will be using it. I personally prefer the bigger one because it is sturdy and does not bog down when I am a bit impatient

I would say 14" is probably the safest and maximum stock you could turn between centers. This is a great lathe if you looking to purchase one.

I would recommend a #5 or a #7 skiptooth blade followed by a #5 or #7 finishing blade. So if you have a #7 finishing blade, use the #7 skiptooth. Be careful using the skiptooth. You can knick your pet. Be careful.

The fiskars 28 inch would be better suited for you ; this will give you more power in your swing in we're you stand to the timber you are splitting; awesome bit of gear happy splitting!

that is a question of preference. I do use all three blades, but the large blade gets the most use. as far as bulk goes I don't notice it . But it all boils down to your preference in the end.

Check your old blade dimensions and if they match up then you won't have any problems. I am very happy with the blades. Worked great right out of the package. Very clean smooth cut.

I went with the same pitch propeller in the four blade that I was running in a three blade and actually gained about 200 rpms. So if you experience the same results you might consider what your rpms are whith your current propeller. I suspect if you went with a 23p four blade you would lose about 200 rpms, and a 21p you would gain 200rpms.

I no longer have it but I will put it to you this way, if you have a 22" mower, get the 21 inch blade.

sure shorter bars always cut better more rpms but you will not be able to cut bigger wood but a 14 will cut quite a bit
