Whoa Found some neat stuff at the Broward county Faith Farm.. These just came in, I was there early this week when I bought the Codep.. Most parts were there too, surprised it being Faith Farm.. Variable Speed Ritz Another one of these unknown fans, pretty much the same fan as the one in the link, but with a neat housing around it.. www.vintageceilingfans.com/unknownceilingfanshongkong70s80s.htmlI haven't dissected it yet, so there may be some info on this fan..

LOVE that Chrome fan. I WANT it if you ever want to trade it.
Nice find on the Ritz. I love those as well.

Love the real cane on the Ritz Tangier! The unknown chrome thing is cool too!

I love the Ritz, even with the gaudy light kit.
Be sure to swap the canopies on the whatever-the-hell-it-is.

This bell canopy is unusually wide. Very wide. Certain lower canopies on certain fans are sometimes made very wide to hide something at the top. Often screws.

Thanks guys.. I think it's meant to be like this aswell, and that link looks similar to this fan.. That light kit looks like it's not meant to be hung on a fan.. It's defiantly rigged on.. I lucked out driving down to Broward county on a trip to buy a nice Canon Vixia HFR200 Camcorder, and decided to check the Faith Farm while down there.. The videos are going to be way better quality than that Flip video I've been using.. I've tested my new camera with the Model B Codep which I already did a video on that I haven't uploaded yet.. I'm going to redo it with the new Camera along with making videos of these..

I looked CLOSE at the canopies when I first saw it, and I think they're correct.
Adam, give me first dibs on the chrome fan if you ever get rid of it.

Sorry to restate the obvious, but that chrome thing is AMAZING. Coolest weird thing I've seen in a very long time. I love a good Ritz too, good grabs.
