I really like that trailer, can you share what it is and where you bought it ? Congratulations on the new SxS !!!
That's the 18' deck featherlite car hauler. We have had it in the family since 05. That thing has hauled hot rods, jeeps, side x sides thousands of miles and never skipped a beat. Couple of bearing jobs and a few sets of tires and that's all we have done

Thank you . . . just a hobbie . . . occasionally I'll get a small gig, but I'm just a hack wannabe who likes trying.
My daughter's a great portrait photographer, was a business, kids, weddings, family pics sorta thing. Now she just does it for a hobby, has a great eye for it.
tried it, but finally admitted I simply didn't have the patience.
Which I find interesting about my daughter, because in every other aspect of life, she's not happy unless she's multi-tasking with all her arms and legs going different directions. Yet shooting pics, she's singularly focused with the ability to wait for it.

Are those static dissipaters along the edge of the blade ? That should move some air around the hanger 👍
The chord length changes from the base to the tip of the blades so they put out the same volume of air throughout the entire disc as the tip air speed velocity exceeds base air speed velocity.

I see that, what I was referring to was that all the blade trailing edges were ragged, looked intentional.

Minus 8F this morning. Unit 2 gas turbine tripped at 0600. All hands on deck thawing out instruments. Here we are tarping a valve actuator and adding a kerosene heater. Not to long after this pic we started back up.

That is the plastic tape they put on the aluminum to keep it from scratching. They cut the aluminum down with the protective tape still on and the plastic tape edge spalls a little.
