Tim Babcock Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 One of the guys who owns an antique store has me referb. a fan for him now and then. These two Vornado's he gave me to fix. The one on the left had a bent out of balance blade but the motor was good. So I repaired the blade sand blasted and painted it. The one on the right had a shorted out motor. I sand blasted it and painted it the same colors. Mick does not want to put the money into a rewound motor so part of my payment is going to be that fan. Rich rewound a 1001 motor and its on the way should be here tomorrow so I can finish up. I made a new turning wheel and put the gold pin stripes on it. there were three indentations that ringed the fan but I thought two would work fine. Put on a flat green cloth covered cord and it looks good to my eye. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
