oh my gosh... that's so real! do you have plastic pulls with it? It may have at one time had plastic pulls, but it didn't come with any (mine was a trash find ;D). But wow, these fans were definitely made in the same factory! How old is your scrap fan? Mine is from 1991.

Whoa, that light kit is so cool! Never seen anything like those shades. The Canarm Twister is pretty cool, too.

Oh I did not know that those Canarm huggers you have in your store were called Tempest. I thought they were called Sirocco. Unless Sirocco is the name for the 42'' version. That Twister is from the year 2000? Look newer. At least 2002 but I would have said more like at least 2005. Its so CHEAP compare to the older version. Everything got smaller and cheaper. The blades were wider on the older one, the housing a lot bigger too, the switch housing and even the globe was a lot bigger. The brackets were hard brackets on the older version not stamped. WOW those crystal shades look heavy! They really look like some brandy glasses. Never seen anything like it. How come they aren't for sale. You bought them for yourself?

i am not sure... if by chance i found a original, i'm keeping 8of them. and i don't want someone to say mail them to me... i want them.
me too i was sure they was called sirocco, but it wasn't true.
i've scrapped the twister. the motor and light kit were smelling like burned plastic. so i've scrapped the blades arms, with no force and they broke.

Ouch, those poor, poor blades. Very odd that it's labeled Canarm, it's even printed on the same shape sticker that TAT used. Never heard of TAT having any association with Canarm before...

I've known of this association for years, mostly in regards to the industrials. Canarm and Wing-TAT made parts/fans for each other. ..And, it almost looks like it came from a friggin Dairy Queen.

Very interesting. It does explain a lot in regards to the industrial models though, like the TATs that look exactly like an early Canarm PleasantAire, except with TAT canopies. Good to know, thanks for sharing.
