Doug Wendel Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I picked up a 29646, 27648, 24666, Western Electric (r&m), and an early split-phase Skeletal. They’re pretty rough. The 24 and 27 are missing parts, and some of the motors are seized. Might be good for some parts or an ambitious project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Ray Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Talk about barn fresh! Think you need a bit more than elbow grease there. But still a great find, whether they get fully restored or become donors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Luu Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 That Century fan is pretty good looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butler Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Nice haul Doug. The only thing better than buying one fan is getting a handful. I assume you got them all at the same place. 👍👍👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kovar Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 All equally dirty...I assume they were allstored in the same "wellventilated" outbuilding.Leave any behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Huber Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 That S3 cast base stationary with the funky + pattern cast pivot is a good catch. Not many of those out there. Manufactured no later than 13. The motor patent was filed in Jan. of 12, so it could have been on the market in 12. If you could please share the serial #, or tag image at your convenience, it would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Huber Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Not sure who to credit, but some of the later S4s had that funky + cast pivot. It would be nice to know if Century marketed both style cast pivots, or the + cast pivot came later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butler Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I had a similar haul on Saturday. I was more excited about the clock than the fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Skeletal and 71666 don't excite you, I'll gladly take them off your hands 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butler Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Patrick and Arjun are on it. The other GE is a three star. Grandpa worked 33 years for Coca Cola. That’s the same style clock that hung in the office. I’ve always wanted one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P Dempsey Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I have some Century Skeletal parts if you come up short parts , nice haul - - you'll never see stuff like that hear on the mid-Atlantic coast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Malzahn Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Hopefully Doug you can get parts for that 24666. In my opinion that fan is worth restoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
