Obviously this isn’t quite right, and I’m sure my answer is much more complicated than necessary but it’s good enough for me! https://www.desmos.com/calculator/c3umdaipun
This is really off… But this is as good as a coworker and I were able to do…

These look great. I didn’t use a max function, and mine is continuous and differentiable with no “piecewise” definition. In mine, the hub of the propeller is not really a circle, but these are not very visible differences. Now if you put theta on a slider, you can make it spin.
Here’s mine. Nice one. Can’t wait to see the original version. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/c0frhpmqkk
Dan, here’s the original propeller graph: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/gfufy5pnbb
Cool. How might you change the center of your propeller from the origin to a different point?
