Be that as it may, but the fact of the matter is that that type of prop simply doesn't work on ships. The metallurgy required to make such a prop in bronze or brass didn't exist back then, indeed, it doesn't exist today.
Most likely, the screws in your source materiel is just there to show were the screws go. For the actual screws, there's probably a second drawing somewhere showing how they actually looked.
Just like how you sometimes find spheres with a stick poking out of it representing a gun. It doesn't represent any specific gun, it just shows approximately how much space has been set aside for it.
That is a very good point, but unless he has other drawings that show him what kind of prop it has, he cant change it.
