Old Electric Fan....Before and After

[mojjax]

At a garage sale the guy asked me if I was looking for anything special - I asked him if he had any old fans , he pulled this out of the back room . It was all apart in a heap , he had started to change the cord a few years ago and never put it back together . I got it for $2.00 .

Your fan blows. At least I assume it does.

I used Krylon spray paint on the body parts and Rustoleum Metalic on the cage . I'm guessing it took about 3 hours .

That all depends on which side of it you're sitting.

Those old fans are fun to restore and work so much better than the modern garbage. I pick them up every chance I get. Fortunately/unfortunately a neighbor down the street buys them from me as fast as I can do the work. I keep hoping he'll get enough of them, so that sooner or later I'll get to keep one.

That looks nice and the color sure seems appropriate too!

Quite nice! Makes me want to talk into the fan at high speed.
