Sorry  
I should have been more clear and actually my reasons . 
I have a very well made composite spinner in my shop. I have checked it for 
balance and true and it is great. It was made that  bulk heads (forward and 
aft) like the ones from ACS  (i think they were part # SN-1 or something like 
that) would have fit in pretty dang close. I am not real keen on a composite 
bulk head from the way to many times that I have fooled with prop balancing. I 
am not convinced that I am capable of laying up  carbon fiber ones that are 
consistent to keep the weight concentric. I won't fly it with just rear bulk 
head either.(been there and done it- bad results)  Aluminum sheet seems best to 
me for this. To start with balance and then ridged also. I am not confident of 
two high speed moving parts that could wear at the attach screw holes. (my 
experience from the seven screws that held my top cowl to firewall -repaired 
every couple years.) 
    So I was just looking for bulk heads fore and aft if they were available 
somewhere. for 10" spinner, for 3 1/4 to 3 1/2" prop hub. made from Aluminum. 
Thanks,

Hi Folks, 
Does anyone have a source suggestion for spinner bulkheads? Apparently they are 
not available from ACS anymore. I guess I could try aluminum spinning on the 
lath but I haven't done that since 7th grade (that was sometime in the last 
century) 
Thanks,
