• The first two i`ve had for years and got them out and fixed them up.
  
  
  
  The big one we just got from a junk dealer and restored it.
  
  
  
  The last one we made from parts, the base was bought at a garage sale.

• Got the ceiling fan at a thrift store for a dollar 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  It wobbles because it`s sitting on the carpet.

• A nice conversion on the Thrift Store Ceiling Fan.
  
  Looks like it will move some air!

• Thanks Charlie, i`m thinking about taking it apart and putting short blades on it and on a low stand more like a original pancake fan was.

• Did a complete rebuild into a table model.
  
  
  
  Video, the noise is from the heater fan.
