Nice job. Maybe you can get a decal for the badge. I've never had luck cleaning them so I don't. Straighten the blades and put some oil on the shaft and it will be a lot quieter and put out a nice breeze. I have several fans from the early and mid 60's. They look their age but run like new
Most likely clowns who think they either know more than him or they 'know' they can do oh so much better than him. (Which we know they are just jealous of his skills.)
Another beauty. I actually have three of these old fans: 16" Emerson, 12" Emerson Junior, 10" Kenmore. The large one was made in 1937 if I remember correctly. The other two are newer. I'd say '50s or '60s. They still work great. And man, do they move the air! I love 'em.
I seen this video and had to watch it. It's my first non-toy video of yours.😀 You definitely have the knowledge of all things that need to be restored. I really enjoyed watching this video.
This is a very cool little fan and certainly worthy of restoration. I noticed that you invested in some nice painting equipment after this video was made. Gone are the days of shaking up cans of spray paint!
Very nice restoration for everything you did, however, you did become a little lax with the part of the cord that goes into the motor. You should have cut those feild coil wires shorter, and attached the new cord nearer to the coils, so the new cord went completely into the casing. Instead of having the heat shrinked wires visible. Would have just looked a little more finished.
I used to be a fan club in 2007 but I moved out of state. I still had some old GE Brass blade fan and still wounder if you can restore these old fan for me. I am currently does not have skills and tools.
Hey chip channel restorations, would I be able to ask a few questions regarding a polar cub fan that I am trying to restore? From looking at the motor, it’s basically the same. It’s a now 100 year old Polar cub Type G made in 1921. I’ve restored the fan cosmetically to its original glory of silver cast iron and brass blades, but the rewiring I’m a little confused on.
Two questions so I can make sure I do the right thing with my fan: What did you prime the blade with before spray painting it gold? And why did you not prime the whole body before painting it black? I love the work you did. Working on a similar project right now; I'm in the cleaning phase.
Thank you! The spray paint that I used on the body had paint + primer. Thus I skipped the primer step. The Paint that I used on the fan blade was only paint. With it being a flat smooth surface I wanted to make sure that it had great adhesion and so I used a primer first. Thank you for watching! I'd love to see your video if you are going to post it!
Nice restoration. I wonder how many kid’s lost a finger with that fan back in the old days? Also, no ground and an all metal body is a recipe for electrocution if there should ever be a short inside the housing. The only thing insulating that body from you is the paint. But, looks nice. I would only use it as a decoration, though.
Chip this is sledgemaster. Do u have a email that I can send u pictures of beautiful antique fan that I have and that winnebago camp that I have. I want to send u pictures and see what think
Those old fans can really push the air. When I was growing up in Alabama every office had several going during the summers.
I agree. I have three of these old fans. They still work great. I wouldn't trade them for a hundred new fans with their flimsy plastic blades.

Such a fun start to the restorations.
That cord though... thank goodness you took care of that.Excellent fine touch work.
Why would 26 people give this a thumbs down? I don't understand that. I just found your channel and love it!

Wanted toys
I never see this small before, I used to see old medium and large fans. Pretty good unique!

You always do a great job, I have seen all your videos...

Awwwwwww......... 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

You did a beautiful job
I was blown away by this video! You made restoring this fan, look like a breeze. Is there a Fan Club to join? LMAO! Nice work.

Would love to see a video where you re-address this little fan!
It was nice seeing you do a fan

I wish I would have seen this video sooner because that is the easiest fan repair I have seen I am talking about the motor part.
Holy smokes!! You are very talented! I am now a subscriber and am really excited to watch the rest of your videos
Your newest video brought me to your channel! Great work!
That looks like the kind of fan I had as a kid.
You know chip. Today they can not come close to how the real old stuff is made.

I love it! Amazing video. 😍

flux for your soldering would have helped immensely.
I want it restored.
Awesome. Restore

Everything on the outside looks good but old.
ficou maravilhoso parabens

Did you get something on the Badge? it looks dis colored afterwards. remember the Badge is a very valuable part of these old fans.
I
Yeah I was wondering the same. The badge looks more worn than it was before.

You can refurb the badge by etching and repainting.
That looks like a “Polar Cub” fan.
It looks a little black inside. Maybe it burn up some inside. That way it was when I got it. Like to have it working again
Did you ever get the fan to run?
Por que no usaste la pintura epoxi para este Proyecto??
Maybe u can help I’m looking for that paint remover u use On the trucks. I searched eBay but I can’t find it.
how did you know the windings were still good?
I ohmed out the windings and then said a little prayer haha. Seemed to work. Thank you for watching.
Hi, may i know what kind of machine you are using for removing rust.
The fan I have is about that size.
Hello - what electro chemical process are you using at min 13? Can you send a link for how to set this up? Thank you!!
That's nickel plating.
👍
Old fan use brush type motor maybe that’s why it so noisy 😅
The only problem is you messed up on the badge. Should’ve left it alone.
What color are the fan blades Gold or Brass?
I thought you only restore old toys
That's 20s or before that's old school and made in the USA un like today's China pride
Chip this is sledgemaster. Do u have a email that I can send u pictures of beautiful antique fan that I have and that winnebago camp that I have. I want to send u pictures and see what think
Very hard to watch (the time lapse format). Thank god your newer videos aren't like this.
I don't think we need to see every single second of every single process, it gets a bit boring
Don't watch.
I just scroll ahead when it gets tedious.
