Summary

A few years ago, I created this Tinkercad Codeblocks script to teach students programming and CAD. This script may still be useful to some today. Please head over to TinkerCAD and check out the code. Update the parameters like camber, radius, and Pitch/Dia. And watch Tinkercad Codeblocks vigorously rendering your propeller block from basic building objects. Fun to watch! :-)

For a better and more precise prop building block, please check out my newer OpenSCAD script at

Many more adjustable parameters (e.g. wash out, naca airfoils, bi-directional prop molds) are implemented in that newer OpenSCAD script.

Watch a video to see how a custom-built propeller performs better than a commercial Ikara propeller:
