I collect weird things...
When we were kids my buddy and I weren't happy with the speed of our Cox airplanes. We decided to fabricate our own props, bigger with a really strong pitch. We used aluminum from cans or something. We were spinning in circles so fast we were dizzy at the end of a tank of fuel.
Looking back, I now realize that if the leading edge of those props ever had a nick or tear, or if it tore in half at the hub, a piece probably could've flung off and killed one of us!
Smell that?
I love the smell of model engine fuel in the morning!
I really do love that smell, and it has been a long time...………..
Yes, very distinct smell, oil on your hands.
I had so much fun with these as a kid in the mid 70's.
(I had a instruction manual that recommended cleaning the motor with Gasoline, Really?)
Carried over into my adult life, I collect them now.

I wish I knew more about currency. Seems like a hobby I would like to dabble in. That’s a great looking five. Like little pieces of art.
