Best wood species for making scale propellers?

[Berman]

 What types of wood meet the criterion for straight small grain, suitable color, strength, and ease of shaping? Which species are compatible when combining two types for laminated props?

[the great waldo]

Boxwood or lime or holly all minimal grain. Lime is the softest of the lot there. If you want to do laminations  in a darker wood I would er on the side of dyeing one of these (probably the lime as it will take the stain better as it's softer) Most darker woods tend to have a coarser grain. Scalewise the grain should not be visible or maybe just a little highlighting with a brush and some oils. I presume we are talking 1/48 or 1/32 scale ?

Perhaps a mix pack of veneers would work:
