Snow plane prop cracks

[SnowPlane78]

Hello all, just found this forum while searching for information on props. I have acquired a snow plane with a Franklin engine. The whole thing needs work but I’m wondering about the prop. It has cracks in it from drying/ shrinking. Can it be repaired and used or used as is? Or, am I better to sell and replace it with a new one?

I would sell it and replace it. It could fragment at high rpms, and it may be beyond simple reconditioning.

Thanks, I’ll look to replace it.
