Wood props have been used for years and years. If you've ever been to
Alaska you probably have seen lots of airplanes, both metal and fabric with
wooden props sitting year round in the weather and under three foot of snow.
Only thing I was ever told was to wax the props regularly, inspect them for
cracks and leave the props horizontal to make sure the internal moisture is
evenly balanced.

PS I've got a Stuba (Florida) wood prop on my Volks engine. Has worked
find for the past ten years.
