ModelsInBottles Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 I'm building my grandfather's WWII destroyer, Lyman K Swenson (Sumner class, almost identical to Fletcher class) and I have props that need to be painted. Bronze? Does anyone know what metal the props were made out of? Obviously black and white pics aren't helping me much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSiemens Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 It apears moat of us dont know either. I did a search and go and found most props are made of bronze or brass or a mixture of both. So that color makes sense. I couldnt find any thing on what WWII ship props were made from.a. found a video of one though. https://youtu.be/QQdFdqEWKY8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
