When Shedd and Weyant appear to have gone down different paths I am not clear on that yet.

Shedd Electric has got to be one of the most bizarre fan motor manufacturers to make sense of.

Waite is a witness on Shedd's vane patent mesne to Westinghouse. So, who designed the new vane mesne to Westinghouse? Shedd or Waite? Now keep in mind, the claimed general manager Albert Moore at Shedd 09(?) is a mechanical and electrical engineer. So..........WHO was designing what? 🙂

Pinning an engineer to later Shedd Electric fan motor engineering (08-12) is a like how many licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop...the world may never know. 🙂

Weyant appears to have got Shedd's support to build and possibly market his first patent bolt on vanes on fan motors on the open market in September/early October of 01.

The Weyant engineered vane mechanisms installed on purchased in the open market stationary fan motors under Shedd's roof in Sept./Oct. of 1901 involved a chain in some manner to control oscillation.
