Andy's photo tour of 12 Wings

[Deleted]

Well Dan invited me to hang out at 12 Wings on Friday and I finally remembered to bring my DSLR camera.

I tried to take shots that showed the installs in context so you can see what a good job Dan has done of coordinating the fans with the decor in their settings. It's easy for a very enthusiastic collector like him to install fans just for the sake of installing a fan, but for the most part the fans look very natural and not "forced" into their locations.

I have over 70 pictures so it takes time to Photoshop them all, so I'll post them in batches since he's been texting me about it. :icon_wink: This first post is the fans on the ground floor.

First off, three Emerson Designer Series fans greet you in the center hallway. One is just visible in the distance to the right of the staircase. There is a third behind me:



Closer look at one of the Designers:



Cafe (Which now features a taqueria restaurant). Three of the four Originals:



Closeup of the 4th Original. They form an L shape, two across the front of the room, then three front to back.



Lights over the taqueria's counter with an Original behind:



Looking down the row of three, from front to back:



The group of three, from back to front. The closer two are electrically reversible AND feature Reverseaire brackets, operating in a "double reverse" configuration so that the net result is downdraft:



FASCo Parlour Fan in the "nook" at the back of the cafe:





Three brown industrials in the VIP Room off the cafe. 2X Moss Caribbean Breeze and 1 Encon Crompton Greaves (2nd picture).







Clothing boutique: 2X NuTone Verandah Deluxe







Salon: 2X Gold Line industrial

Here they are! The fans on the basement level...

This 36" Emerson Heat Fan (Blender) is in the hallway just down the stairs:





By far the largest area on this floor with fans (so far) is the banquet/dance hall, which is still a work in progress. Closest to the entrance is this majestic K63 Emerson Turn of the Century:







Standing near the TOC looking toward the far corner of the room, four fans are visible out of the eight total installed in this space. Off camera to the left is the stage, and to the left and behind the camera is the A/V room.



The closest fan from the previous picture is a plain Emerson Casablanca Classic with a K55:





Looking from the plain CC toward the back wall, visible in the distance is an ornate CC with light kit:



Looking from the ornate CC with light kit down the row of three in the middle of the room, plain CC behind and then the TOC between the Exit signs.



Over the stage is a Lasko top-mount.





Wide shot from the stage, seven of the eight fans in this space are visible. Off camera to the right is another ornate CC with light kit.



Now we're on the opposite end of the room from the stage, diagonally opposite the A/V room. Looking down the row of three fans at this end, closest is an ornate CC without a light kit.



Moving down this row, we have another Lasko top mount, this time with a light kit. In the background are the other fans in the row of three down the middle the long way, plain CC and the other ornate CC with light.



Finally, in what will become a kitchenette, is this 36" Hunter Comfort Breeze.





I fired it up on high and bumped my shutter speed down to 1/40 second.



Here's the man himself making adjustments to the FASCo World's Fair after installing it in the A/V room. This room will be a mixing/recording studio for live performances on the stage.







Looking through the window in the distance, an ornate CC with light and the Lasko over the stage are visible.



A (somewhat oversized for the space) Lasko in the men's bathroom.



NuTone Proline industrial in the panel (breaker) room. I helped Dan pull this fan and several others like it out of an old hardware store in Sun Prairie over the winter.





I didn't change the fan's speed at all, but I did knock the shutter speed on my camera from 1/100 (first picture) and 1/60 (2nd) of a second to 1/15 for these next two pictures.





In the storage/possible future laundry room is the "Autumaire"-labeled Airmaster that I donated to the cause, paired with a white 52" K55 Emerson blender. A 4-bladed Leslie-Locke used to be where the Emerson is, and it's possible that fan will be replaced as well. The Airmaster was briefly installed in the panel room before the NuTone was ready.









Not pictured on this level: Fan in the women's bathroom.

Working on fan stuff with Dan today made me realize that I never finished uploading these! These will be the fans on the upstairs level.

Front stairwell: Thomas



Men's bathroom: Mystery hugger, possibly Air Cool or Murray-Feiss





Women's bathroom: 42" Bahama

Kitchenette: Single-speed Emerson







Dance Studio: 2x 48" Dayton Lasko in the corners (so as not to pose a hazard to dancers raising their arms). The other is close to me and off camera to the right, I didn't want to disturb the class in progress.



Administrative office: 42" GEC India Davimport



Head pastor's office: 48" ornate Encon Crompton Greaves
