Would it not be better to simply BOLT the prop on right where the trimmer head is? I mean it would bolt right on, no "JB Weld" BS would be required. JB Weld, what a joke, but I have to accept that not every guy is qualified to build/repair/fabricate, etc. Thanks for the laugh though! Seriously, you CAN bolt a small prop to a weed whacker. Just take the trimmer head off (unscrew it, don't bash it off with a hammer or anything ignorant) and bolt the prop on. Stay away from the JB Weld.
