Lasko Box Fan Lets Make a Handle Part 1

[@-unclebuck-]

I did some work on my fan today as well. the blade mounting hole has been eaten away from the compressor spring not compressing, and the shaft wore away the blade shaft mount area. I stuffed tin foil on the shaft and wedged the blade onto the shaft and that seems to have filled up the space and it does not make nearly as much noise as it did before I worked on it. It's a 22 inch box fan from the mid 70s, so I like to keep it around, it was from my Grandmas place. It sounds much nicer now and I think it spins faster with all the banging around on the shaft is gone.

My buddy Rob is reproducing these handles and selling them for a very reasonable price. You should reach out and get a few while hes still making them!

I do 3D print things, which does include these handles. If you can provide me with the precise measurements of the broken handle, I can design something and ship it to you, but you'll have to cover the shipping.
