David's ceiling fans sightings

[Deleted]

i had a few builder fans in the past some are descent air movers but they still crappy looking IMO,i get them only if they are free/good shape

[Deleted]

I'm now moving to the other forum, because here i dont get a lot of comments,
and you guys copy your comments from a forum to another,

See you on the other one!!

[Deleted]

I look at this one a lot more often, and usually comment here.

[fancollector12]

Yes, please don't leave. I don't like the other forum, anyways.

ok... for you guys,

This week, i made some modifications to the big hugger.
Hope it will be sold soon,
i change the blades and the light kit.


Also got an SMC WINDSOR from 2004
with pastel and multicolor blades.

David, if you're tired of retyping everything onto here just copy and paste it onto here from DT. That's what I do if I have a long post or thread. (No offense to anybody on here)

[Deleted]

actually it's what i'm doing. i type everything on dt, and see if everything is ok, and after i just copy and post here... i'm a lazy person, haha

I was just tired of seeing the same comments on the 2 forums,
but it's ok, i'll live with that

I like the SMC! I tried to buy one of those mini fans off of eBay last year, but the bidding got way out of hand and the price went way out of my range...

But yeah, definitely still post your pics on here. I usually check this forum first, so I'd probably put a more substantial comment on here...

[Cole S.]

Thanks David, really appreciate the effort to work around the unfortunate separation of the forums. I usually come on here first as well, you'll usually get my replies here. If you don't get replies on DT I usually post a different version of what I posted here to bump the thread.

We had a slightly different version of the SMC here in the US called the Carousel II. We also had a white/polished brass as well as a polished brass only version called the Bridgeton.

[Deleted]

Yeah, but they were from hapton bay.

I have to mention that the pull chains are not original.
i think it came with the oreo style pull chains.

Ok, so don't worry, i will continue my thread in both forums,

[Farah]

those are very nice fans! i hope that you enjoy them.

[Deleted]

I have to say, Farah, that i enjoy every single fan i got at the thrift store,
even if i have them for only a couple of hours,

Yep, the Carousel II was basically a Hampton Bay San Marino painted in white with multi-color blades. I think it even came with an additional set of blades that were white/bleached oak for when the kid "grew out" of the multi-color theme. Looks like that's what SMC did with the Windsor David got; maybe it was a special package they offered specifically for kids rooms.

The Bridgeton (at least the pre-2001 models) were pretty much identical to the SMC Windsors offered elsewhere; the '99 Home Depot catalog even shows the SMC oreo pull chains in the picture of the Bridgeton. The design was changed a bit in 2001, but the basic idea was the same...

I have a picture from the same fan from kijiji.
tehy offered with it 2 sets of blades(pastel/multicolor --white/bleached oak like the carroussel,

Smc introduced this model around 1997, I'm shure jean know the exact year

Thanks for the infos rick!!
