Put the rod in the hole and put the propeller on it... one side of the rod is CW and the other side is CCW
PS:Sand paper the surface of the rod which contact to the roller, more smooth are more better.
or u can use any other cylinder tube to replace the rod...

Try to move the propeller lightly CW & CCW, if the propeller is falling down than using sand paper try to reduce weight from the falling propeller leaf. than try to lightly move CW & CCW again.
if the propeller is steady or nearly steady enough in the middle than it balance...
