could I use this and a cordless drill to make a cheap propeller for my inflatable boat?
>>

Yes, that's a great idea with no downsides. You should go do it right now and ignore any negative nellies you might see in this thread.
>>
>>2828047
sure
>>
>>2828047
Actually, corded drills without have more power. Think about using one of those instead.
>>
not without modification, the ring on the bottom is meant terminate any rotational thrust otherwise the mixer would propel itself out of the bucket every time you mix.
>>
Why not just get a junkyard/free motor and pull the propeller off to Chuck in the drill
>>
Get a real propeller and put it on an old weedeater. It legit works lol
>>
>>2828047
No, that's a stupid question. But I'm sure you already knew that.
>>
>>2828047
Cordless is retarded, you'll run out of juice and be stranded in the middle of a lake. Use corded for sure
>>
>>2828047
yes, but jerry rig your own battery pack or you'll be replacing batteries all the time
>>
>>2828047
No. Attempting to use this to propel a boat will only generate laughter from others watching.
>>
Do it anon, but you probably want a real propeller.
>>
>>2828047
Battery life would be the only problem.

even shitty lithium drills have enough oompf in them to spin that thing surprisingly fast and with a shitton of torque
>>
>>2828047
At this point, rent a pedal boat.
