Thanks for the suggestion but I doubt if they would want to sell or give these away because since they're in working order they would probably need these to move air in the summer time. It looks like this metal building is big enough for one of those B.A.F. fans. When I went inside this Garden Store the other day I was shocked to see that one had 3 blades and the other one had 4 blades. Last time I was there was about a few years ago and I couldn't tell how many blades they had because they were running. It looks like when they painted the ceiling they might have gotten paint on the fans as well and they haven't been cleaned for quite sometime. I would love to have a 4 bladed Dayton/Lasko ceiling fan no matter if it's 40" or 56" I think these are cool looking.

Whoa I did not know they were made with 3 blades too! Of course the 4 blades ones are much more cool looking. In the Yahoo groups there a picture of a very rare white Sanyo with 4 metal blades that use the same canopies as the Dayton Lasko. It appears to be 48'' and also have a pull chain but the pull chain is mounted differently than the way they are on Dayon Laskos.

What you do is, you buy two $30 cheap industrials from Menards or wherever, and offer to replace their old fans with nice new ones!

I tell you what Andrew, if I ever get the 3 bladed fan I'll save it for you, but I can't promise anything because I don't go to this store very much and I doubt if they'll be taken down anytime soon.

It's rare that someone frowned at me on taking pictures of ceiling fans... ;D Hey, cool Dayton-Laskos on the first page, by the way! That 3-bladed one is just awesome.

I need to go back over there and ask them if I can shoot a video of them if they have them turned on.

I told an Employee out there that I was interested in both fans whenever they're taken down and they said to go back over there in the Winter and talk to the owner about them since Spring and Summer is there busiest time of the year. It was pretty hot in that big metal building at the time I went in there because either the AC didn't work or they had no AC unit in there at all. I think the building is big enough for 1 or 2 of those B.A.F. or Rite Hite ceiling fans, they'll probably move alot more air than these Dayton/Laskos that are less than 5 feet wide. I bet they probably won't take these fans down until they malfunction or they decide to upgrade but in my opinion these fans are to small for the building. I can't promise you guys that I'll get these fans but I'll try my best.
