How to repair a broken box fan when a blade breaks off

[@commoditycheeze9184]

Hell yea man I had 3 broken box fans laying around the house and I just fixed all 3 thanks sir!

[@ZayviaDream]

I've watched all the fan broken blade videos this is the best way. And it's funny cuz u say ow. And told the kid to touch the fan when it was turned on hahahahah

[@mansfield1986]

Just remember you have to counter balance the glue added

[@ZayviaDream]

But were exactly do you put the washer

[@yahsomeacres7816]

I just broke a fan blade 2 days ago. I am going to try this now. Thanks!

[@mansfield1986]

Did it work out for ya

[@yahsomeacres7816]

@@mansfield1986 It did until I had it on a table which allowed the fan to vibrate off and broke it again. Fixed it a second time which didn't hold, tried glue and gave up.

[@rayshellray2824]

Well what do u do if all the blades are still attached but three of them are broken off to different sizes would cutting them all to the same size help

I Used my Soldering gun, it was very effective . Just fixed 2 Thanks man

[@mansfield1986]

You’re welcome and most people don’t have a soldering iron

@@mansfield1986 The meth torch looked handy

Those Lasko fans are so cheaply made, bought one a month ago and it arrived with one blade tip broken off that we didn't realize. The first day I noticed it vibrated a lot, thought it was because of cheap made, next day after noticing it walking around the room again, I looked it over and saw the tip broken, so made a note not to run it on 3. Even on 2 it was bad enough to walk around the room and eventually caught on uneven part of floor and fell over breaking a blade off. I'm shocked they don't just fly apart as soon as you turn them on, lol.

thanks a lot bro, helped a lot

[@JackThoreaux]

The thumbnail looks like Post Malone is about to fix the fan

[@elijahton1210]

Omg thanks so much I broke my mom's purple fan an I fix it thanks to ur tip

[@judahjr6805]

Where do I get that screwdriver from

[@skytaylor4209]

Dude awesome!!!!

[@skyemckenzie7953]

Tysm!!! This work left a lotta black marks on my fan though

[@sethhorst6158]

I usually see the motor on those burn out before the blades ever deteriorates into the state that as soon as it starts spinning, part of the blade flies off.

[@mansfield1986]

I guess you don’t have children or animals knocking over your fans.

@@mansfield1986 dad comment still relevant for all dads. Non dads won't understand the pain. Keep repairing. As they tighten the world screws even a box fan will be hard to toss away before trying to repair it because they'll cost so much money.

[@nonelost1]

I could not see what you were using (one commentor said a “mini torch”) to fix your fan blade. I have a broken fan blade and I’m thinking of using glue. But my experience with glue has not been too good.

[@mansfield1986]

Yes a mini torch and remember that both sides have to be molten plastic to adhere together. I figured it out from welding.

[@nikalushaga1997]

Just fixed mine with a bic lighter

[@JoseChavez-cl2hn]

Who says you waste your time in prison?

[@trizzytr3yy511]

My blade broke and is shakes when I turn it on what should i do

[@mansfield1986]

If you fixed it like the video remember it shakes because it’s off balanced by weight

[@bobo888bobo]

put a screw in the opposite side of the center hub as a counterweight

[@MustangGuy2000]

2:40 baby almost put his hand in the fan... ouchie Lol

[@AgeofReason]

Not from what I see.

[@rayshellray2824]

Well.if he did he would have only done it once..one time one my kids it was plastic so thank God it just hurt some no blood or anything but it was also nit on high

[@franknsteinsASMR]

Is that just a cigarette lighter?

[@MustangGuy2000]

It's a mini torch

[@nickv4073]

That fix wont last. You need a donor fan.

[@CmdrTigerKing]

lol glue them.. its gonna start wobbling then break off after 15mins

[@DcFanfic]

I used some gorrilla glue

[@Ashley-vl4bv]

Omg mine too

[@kymroberts5]

Didn't work for me

[@andrewdeck7945]

quick fix, bad dad ;)

[@Cydia942]

My videos more informative for a hour long repair video then again my fan spins in a circle not a square
