On second thoughts, perhaps we should add even more info?  How about
adding "angled blade" or some info about the number of studs on the
blades, if that applies?

Here are the current parts from the Propellor and Rotor categories:

4745.DAT      Propellor  2 Blade
6040.DAT      Propellor Housing
3480.DAT      Rotor  2 Blade Helicopter Tail
2421.DAT      Rotor  3 Blade
2479.DAT      Rotor  4 Blade  5 Diameter

And the next update is going to (re-)add the following:

6041.DAT      Propeller  3 Blade  1.5 Diameter
4617.DAT      Propeller  3 Blade  5.5 Diameter
3461.DAT      Rotor  4 Blade Helicopter

So we might reorganize to:

4745.DAT      Propellor  2 Blade  2.8 Diameter Freestyle
3480.DAT      Propellor  2 Blade  4   Diameter Large Hole
6041.DAT      Propellor  3 Blade  3   Diameter Boat
2421.DAT      Propellor  3 Blade  4   Diameter Small Hole
4617.DAT      Propellor  3 Blade  5.5 Diameter Airplane


2479.DAT      Propellor  4 Blade  5   Diameter Studded
3461.DAT      Propellor  4 Blade  5   Diameter Studded

You probably didn't intend to have identical names here.


I added the bits on the ends to provide some evocative terminology.  I'm not
sure that's the right way to go, or not.

Also, I'm not sure what to do with:

6040.DAT      Propellor Housing

It doesn't exactly belong in the 'Propellor' category, but I'd hate to rename it
"Plate  2 x  2 x  2/3 with Propellor Housing".  Anyone have any ideas?


Wouldn't that be "Brick  2 x  2 x  2/3 w/ Propellor Housing"?  The Propellor category works better, though.  Maybe "Propellor
Housing w/  2 x  2 x  2/3 Brick"?
