Geoff Dunaway Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 I've got one of those. If U go to see the movie Killers of the Flower Moon, see if U can spot it They rented it and a truckload of desk and ceiling fans to use on the set of the movie. There was another version of this fan motor adapted to wall mounting in a downward aimed cast iron C frame which mounted to the wall and retained the motor, blade & cage in an oscillating function. I've seen a picture of that one but never yet seen an example of it as a survivor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ Huber Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 Most of what I have posted here comes from the old website within seconds/minutes using memory and key words. Do you see the importance of salvaging the old website with its search engine as is if possible. Worth every penny it would cost to pay those who have the skillset to do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Dunaway Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 Have to agree with you on that one Russ. Where did all those Cee Frames go?? Anybody ever seen or had one of them ?? Diehl must be 2nd only to early Century S-4 in making geared speed reduction overly complicated. Emerson nailed it with the 24XXX gear box as far as simplicity, safety and servicability are concerned. My 2 cents..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
