/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>547580
my fucking parents threw out my grandmother's stand mixed because THE BOWL BROKE. I did not come to learn this until very recently when I said I wanted one very badly. Fucking hell.

attached is a pic of a fan that i restored recently, its a 1947 ge vortalex 12" oscillator. i soldered new head wires to the motor, replaced all the wiring and the switch (since the knob cracked and was expensive to replace), removed a lot of rust, painted, oiled, greased, and away she went! blows like hell!

painted and reassembled.

all thats left are the badges, the blades, and the cage.
