If you have a broken blade from a crash, you can make use of that good end of the blade into good use.
I just had a crash recently and had kept the broken blades.
Then I thought of making use of this broken piece into good use when setting up my cyclic pitch , etc.
I saw it into a short length and smooth out the edges with a file.
Then I use it as a fix for putting on my pitch gauge onto.
Because it is short, working on the heli is now so convenient. You can rotate the blades anywhere you liked, and check its pitch on your work bench.
I used to be bothered by the blades spinning up, or having to move my face / body away from the long blades whenever I need to position the blades so that I can read the pitch angle off the pitch gauge.
Now with a short blade fix, you can simple hook up this short blade with the pitch gauge and work on your gyro programming.
It is so simple, safer and takes up less floor space on the work bench.
Never worry about the full sized length blade hitting the walls, your computer monitor or your face !
So next time when you have a broken blade, don't throw them away!
