newbie prop question

[Ziggy]

Greetings OSE
so being the dead of winter I'm doing some upgrades on my Proboat Fastech this winter. as part of the upgrades I picked up a X642 prop. so here is my stupid newbie question; where the heck is everybody finding a shim that fits this prop? the new prop is a 3/16" diameter, and I have a stock 3mm flex shaft. I can't find anything that fits, I've tried the local hobby shop and a few online places but nobody seems to have that size.. I've seen 3/16 to 1/8 is that close enough, worried that will have too much slop.
Thanks guys, total Newb question but I'm just plain confused.

Hi,
Yes the 1/8" to 3/16" will be fine.
I have been using just a brass piece of tubing for my modded Rio ep for years now.
Or if you what while you are upgrading go to a 3/16 flex shaft and be done with that.
