This thing actually looks more Gulf Coast/Synlix than anything else. I agree with Andrew. It's pretty clear that Synlix made fans for a lot of the Canadian companies as well. I have seen plenty of 5 wood blade spinners in pictures, none in person. What are the five blade spinner you seen? Were any of them top mount? |

This fan does not look like any gulf coast/synlix that I've ever seen, the canopy is different and so is the cane. Synlix used tight weave cane.

Nice and rare! Where's the light kit? I removed it of course. It was awful and oversize. |

You never posted about theses. What are they? The only one someone posted here was that small one that Jeremy M. posted a few years ago. |

Here are a few others I had on my old hard drive:    1st one: Oh yes I had forgotten about those. They are very weird looking. The whole housing spins with the blades? 2nd one: That's the one I was talking about earlier. It had the brackets that I had in mind but it seems it's made by TAT because of it's motor. |

2nd one, Yes, it looks similar to this motor, but a bit different too:  The person who added that god awful looking light kit should have there head examined.. If I saw this when It was on Craigslist I would have been interested in it.. |

Very cool, and very glad to see that you got this one. Certainly a very uncommon example, and great job with the restoration and cleaning. Thanks. At least the paint of the fan was still in very good condition, it's just the blades that had to be redone. Have you seen a top mount five blade spinner in person before? |

Oh you got it, awesome! Yeah I've been seeing that online for AGES, definitely a nifty fan, congrats! Thanks! I probably should have gotten it earlier. |
