Little Tiny ceiling fan...

...for those wondering:

it's not my build.. Instead it was bought this way as parts/repair from a lot.

(I paid just over $10 for it)

...the quality is very good, even though its broken, the motor still turns over

and the light kit still works 💡😎

Real brass central rod & light-kit cover are a bonus.

...alas, I am a-bit torn,

on the one hand I can "Restore" it.

on the other hand, I can "Convert" it.

If converted, I would give it real wood blades with an actual dedicated mounting system.

(The current blade set is made of 3-d printed plastic, which got broken)

The current blade construction also fused the "mounts" with the blades...

The flywheel is OK and still usable.

The motor is a BLDC type, CCW rotation only. (Non- Reversible type).

Single bearing via a micro ball bearing,

but I think it needs to be doubled for stability. Too much wobble currently.

Will update on this fan as time allows.
