    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.

    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

    Why would 26 people give this a thumbs down? I don't understand that. I just found your channel and love it!

      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.)

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

  • @terryprater8115

    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.

  • @johnporter6263
    @johnporter6263 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    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!

  • @jaedevine3714
    @jaedevine3714 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    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.

  • @jamesjustice4515

    @b_shet 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    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.

    • @ChipChannelRestorations
      @ChipChannelRestorations  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      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!

    Did you get something on the Badge? it looks dis colored afterwards. remember the Badge is a very valuable part of these old fans.

      Yeah I was wondering the same. The badge looks more worn than it was before.

  • @ITWorksSoftware
    @ITWorksSoftware 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    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.

  • @Frankowillo

    You can refurb the badge by etching and repainting.

  • @jamesjustice4515
