I figured I share this with y'all. I built this fan for my mom using parts from a JCPenney/Tatung and a Harbor Breeze New Orleans motor I found. The bearings were shot on the Tatung motor and I wanted to get a different motor for it but I found the New Orleans motor and I decided to franken-fan it. Here is the finished result. I finally got it all complete from some parts lying around. It runs nice, but it wobbles BADLY. I suppose the blades are out of balance as I aligned the blades pretty well.

Try changing the blade configuration around first until you find a balanced result.

Looks quite decent. I agree with swapping the blades around, can really make a major difference.

Well, that's one cool franken-fan! ;D Looks great; if I didn't know better, I'd say it's from a real manufacturer.
