Blade removal on a Westinghouse Poweraire

Hello all. I have completely disassembled a Westinghouse Poweraire but I have no clue how to get the blade out of the cage. I very well may be missing something easy here, but I just don’t see it. Could someone help me??

There is an opening spot at the bottom for the blades. Gently maneuver the blades out, the opening was put there to help with this.D0E8ECDE-959F-4169-B9FE-DF7380C9DB0E.thumb.jpeg.e9343d4eb23a7885db3b3eaf82b72ac6.jpeg

Finally got it. Thank you very much. Anyone have an idea where you can get a better one of these?  Not quite sure I have the coordination to tape it and cut out the letter to repaint them.

A littile white finger nail polish applied with the likes of a tooth pick wil do the trick

Looks great Josh!

If needed some carefully applied heat from a heat gun will assist in getting her back to round again.

Thanks. This is just my third one I am redoing so I am still learning as I go.

Looks great.  Good job! 👀  Is the blade color from unpainted Micarta?🦅
