While some engines are fairly easy to hand-prop you'll probably find your life is MUCH easier with a spinner and electric starter. Best bet is to either buy an aluminum spinner or maybe a simple milled prop nut that is also large enough to use the electric starter. The plastic spinners you can find anywhere can easily melt from the friction from an electric starter trying to spin past the compression. Two different styles that do the same things - provide the look you want while not melting from friction like plastic. I've got the metal spinners on a few planes and the milled prop nuts on other planes (like a Cub) where the spinner wouldn't look right.
