After thought...
With 6" pipe, and a 4" root, something must be pointed the wrong way.
Part of the blade is fighting another part of the blade.
The 2" tip has me wondering too.

Maybe I am wrong, but weight seems to be the least of the problems.

Yeah, seems odd. This is where a couple pictures could tell the tale easier than text.

Ghurd, It sounded about right to me so I layed it out real quick and it looks
pretty good- especially if the trailing edge got raked back at the tip like I've
shown in the drawing
