Wow that was impressive! You brought back something that was dead to a beautiful display...AND it works. You found some good solutions for replacement parts too, awesome work.
had the same zinc issue on mine - found out it was "zinc pest" in which the lead content of the zinc casting at the time causes it to slowly fall to pieces. I jb-weld and fiberglassed mine back together to get it functional. Lovely restoration and great work!
Wow that rotor looked incredibly cherry. Yeah…some of these have lots of pot metal. On some later century the entire motor housing is pot metal and it pretty much crumbles attempting to remove the stator.
Nice job as always The little pins holding the tag are called U-drive screws, can pick them up on eBay or Amazon. Handy to have a few spares in the shop
Hi there! First off, I have to say that I’m thankful for the angles you chose, it made it easy to follow. I do have a few questions, as I’m working on an old fan of my own. 1. How important is the insulation to the stator, and is it replaceable? My stator’s insulation was cloth, and came right off, so I was curious what the issue would be if it had none. 2. Does it matter which leads connect to which wire? I was going to replace my wire with a polarized one, but wasn’t certain which wire would go where. I’d also like to know how to ground it, as I do plan to use it regularly. And lastly, 3. In the case of the stator just being no good, are there any viable replacement parts available? Thanks a bunch.
Nice job! I have this same fan I'm just starting to restore. At 6:53 where you showed connecting the cord to the winding was very helpful. Could you share any information around how you connected the new cord to the base at 14:40?
That was amazing. Especially since you'd never worked on a fan before. Any recommendation for how to fix a Cinni fan that is very similar? My fan is only 25 years old but I can't get it to work and I don't know where to take it for repair in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
I've always just disassembled things and hoped to see something obvious. Sometimes I have to watch the footage to see how to put it back together. It's difficult to find shops willing to take on small projects like these, there's not much money in it.
Honestly, it’s been years since I did that project and I do not remember any details. I would just say watch the video during the assembly and hopefully it will answer your question.
après avoir revu, je me suis rendu compte que les clous de la plaque signalétique entraient dans le stator. cela empêchait le stator de sortir. J'ai apprécié votre vidéo.
If memory serves it was just a couple of screws and it came right out. I believe I had to cut the cord off at the housing and I gently worked it out to relieve strain on any of the other wires.

Sometimes if you find another fan on eBay, you could use the parts. That fan now looks GREAT!👍
Much more complicated than I expected. I fix a lot of things, that’s a little beyond me. Came out wonderful.
Very nice!

Cory Driver Thanks for the kind words!
Better than anything you can buy today. And taking the blade to polished brass it's probably prettier than new. Nice job !

live oak Thanks for that! I couldn’t find anything like them- I will definitely pick up some spares
Wonderful!
Hi bro 👋👋👋 very good restoration fan 👍👍👍👌🏽

Trevor Barron I used the original terminals that were screwed on. Heated them up and pulled the old wires out, then soldered in the new.

Thanks. I'll give it a try.
Hello, I have the same fan how didn’t you remove the head part? Metal and wire piece. Mine seems stuck in there
Honestly, it’s been years since I did that project and I do not remember any details. I would just say watch the video during the assembly and hopefully it will answer your question.
am doing a similar project, and wanted to know you got the stator out from the framing? any tricks or suggestions?

What tool is that you used to remove the blade from the shaft?
That’s a small two jaw gear puller. Pretty handy and can be found usually pretty cheap.
