4617.dat - Propeller 3 Blade

(...) I have a few comments: 2717.dat - Technic Seat Should we call this part "Technic Seat 3 x 2 Base" for clarity? I'm aware that theere is only one technic seat at the moment, but this might change, plus a more descriptive name may be in place. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
