Will this tool work with my std warp drive prop.

Bought myself one of the above, its the prop balance tool with the
little spirit level on the end of the string, reading the instructions
it says the the pivot point should be a little above the centre of
mass and is suitable for std 1"in hole props,
My prop is a std 3 blade warp drive with flanges both sides of the hub
so no solid 1" bore all the way through the prop hub, so my pivot point
would be quite high or low if I used one of the outer flanges to centre the tool,
So I am know thinking this tool is not suitable for my prop although it was described as suitable for props with std 1" hub,
Any of you guys advise if I can use it with a std warp drive prop in any way.
