Another lucky score today.. Went to the Stuart Habitat and got these CG  CG four metal blade reversible fans Stupid idiot previous owners removed both Labels from both fans.  On the way home I stopped by the local Habitat and found a 52" fiberglass blade Emerson Universal (Blender) with older flywheel type. Original canopy was replaced at one time with a generic bell canopy.. I almost didn't see it, it was lying on the floor behind stuff..   My favorite.. I think I have an extra Emerson canopy lying around.. |

Wow! Nice score on the Crompton Greaves! I love this version with four metal blades and the fleure de lys brass brackets. They are my favorite brackets for High Breezes.
Arghh. I hate when the sticker are removed too. I thought that theses old Crompton Greaves used greenish metal tags instead of stickers that can be peeled off. No wall controls but that's usual.

Thanks... They did have metal tags.. Look at the motor and you can see holes from where the tags were mounted..

Sweet finds! Too bad about the CG's! Hopefully you can put a replacement pull chain on the Blenderfan!

I was able to fix the original pull switch on the blender fan.. Went to home Depot and bought beaded pull chain and connectors, opened up the original switch and connected to the left over chain from where it broke off, though had to cut a bit of that off, due to the fact I had to pull straight out to get the switch to click because the connecter was getting in the way of the chain outing.. Works perfect now..
On the Crompton Greaves, it's no big deal.. I'm sure the model is 1200mm or up to 1400mm.. I'll just put them in the gallery that's most appropriate..

Thanks.. I also stumbled upon one of these with five blades, which I found quit odd.. I've never seen one of these with five blades, it was in antique brass finish and had a model number on it like any other Hampton Bay.. I didn't get it due to it having a light kit, but I'm tempted to go back..  |
