heartattack22 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 once it cools down you could always use the fan to blow warm air up from the warm basement. It would help save on heating costs!!! Low and behold there was a year-round use for this fan! I am sure others didn't realize it before it was left at those GPS cords!!!

Harmonica Bear Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 It's going to be a warm one this weekend and I'll be up at the shack. I sure could have used that fan with the stickers. (Contact Us Please)....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kallista Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Ok you are not going to believe this. But today i went out to the front of my house and on my steps is a 20 inch box fan, the front cover is off and there are only 3 blades left out of 4, the cord has no end it it and it looks like its been to hell and back.. So i left it sit there on my front steps. Then i stumbled onto this thread and just read all this about a box fan.. I have to say this is quite funny, has the box fan returned?

Bigbartguy Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Kallista - are you saying that you now have a box fan up for grabs? any stickers? Ely is a long way to drive for fan w/o any stickers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott M Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Well, there aren't any teddy bear stickers or Kansas City Royal Stickers, but there is a unicorn sticker...coincidence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallista Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Well the only reason why theres a unicorn sticker is cause i was good at docs for blood work, so i got some stickers LOL... nahh my daughter got them for her blood work, she has had cancer since 2 1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jameson Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 So Kallista, are you hanging on to the fan, or is up for grabs. I was just near Ely this past weekend, could have picked it up. If it's still around during deer season, I might still be interested.Please don't put any stickers on it. I think I'll try and restore the 20" box fan to like-new condition.Thanks!

Kallista Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Nope its gone..I left it on my front steps and it walked off. Not sure who put it there but maybe they took it back? So the case of the 20 inch box fan is once again a mystery. But i still have stickers up for grabs.. Just really weird it was there tho..

Lisa Almquist Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Kallista, Are you sure that Jameson didn't take a midnight run to claim his next restoration project?? Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABS4ME Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Note to self... Stock up on broken-down, used 20" box fans... there's a definite market for them in Minnesota! Good Luck! Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Bass Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Was passing the time on Main street here at Lake Iwanttobethere. I was doing some window shopping when I noticed a pale weathered orange VW van slowly driving down main street in my direction. It was all done up in painted flowers and green leaves. It reminded me a lot of my long forgotten past youth. It caught my attention not because of the loud muffler or the vast number of bumper stickers and other stickers which were covering rust spots. But it was what was in the back window as it passed me. There appeared to be a 20 inch box fan pressed up against the glass, it was missing a blade and it sent a chill down my back as I could almost hear it crying out for help. I turn to see if anyone else had seen the van and by the time I turned back it was just making a turn off main street and was gone from sight. Somehow I got that gut feeling that the fan was in some sort of trouble. I soon forgot about it till I saw mention here about a 20 inch box fan. Hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
