Repaint, repaired and added brass blades.

I agree, but eyes keep getting pulled over to that fly swatter. 🙂

Beautiful work!

The coil is going to get warm running on low speed with a rewind or a 29646-cheater coil. My advice to you before you get a rewind is think about becoming a member, I have seen you post more than once. Number two, as a member you can meet up with another member in your area that may have more experience to help check your fan out thoroughly. It would be a bummer to have a coil rewind and have the same problem. Good luck.

George Durbin and David Cherry and for myself, I ordered a set of 5 different styles (a set is 4). Should be interesting.

I was in my stash today and peeked at a 21666 and 19666 12" 6-pole BIG motor types. Both had 65 Watts stamped in the motor tag. I then checked two 12" 4-pole small motor 24646 models that had wattage stampings in the tags. One was 60 watts and the other 64 watts. There you go. It would be logical the 21646, 27646, 29646, 73646, etc. 12" small motor 4 pole type numbers either oscillating or stationary types would be operating at similar wattage as the 24646 models. You can thank Alex Rushing for this tip of swapping speed coils from an Emerson 4 pole small motor to a BIG motor 6 pole. He was the one who first brought it to our attention on the old website. Regardless, if you do this swap to cheat a rewind, ALWAYS test the switch coil wired outside the fan on medium-low speeds for a good hour to see how warm the coil gets.

I have the same question as David Allen. I see how this measures velocity at a certain distance, but I don't see how it measures volume of air moved over time (CFM). I'm sure I'm missing something.

I purchased this ceiling fan quite a number of years ago, and then left it boxed. Finally I was motivated to do some work on it and hang it with some of the rest of the fans throughout the house.
