@@wesleysceilingfanjoint5255 it’s using 36” blades from my Hunter Comfort Breeze and it’s less weight on the gears which allows it to spin faster. If I had the rest of the original parts for the Panama, I’d be using the 52” balsa wood blades it would’ve came with. Surprisingly, it’s wired to just an on/off switch on the wall and no solid state
The Emerson friction drive has a rubber drive wheel that spins against the hub which is what the blades mount to. When it turns off, the rubber drive wheel stops instantly while the hub is still rubbing against it. Hence why it’s called a friction drive ceiling fan
0:56 sound like airplane
The Panama is on my want list
The second one is so loud
The toastmaster sounds like a plane engine!
Any Edison/Toastmaster of that model, they all have that motor whine
The motor on that fan sounds so cool!
you can make the low speed a lot slower on that toastmaster. they’re not suppose to be that fast on low :)
I actually really like those fans
How did you get the Panama going that fast? Those things are usually slow

I can’t imagine sleeping with those fans on, lmao
New sub! Also nice fan!
Edit: WHY THE HELL IS THE SECOND FAN LOUD THO?
It was pretty common for those friction drives to be that noisy because of their poor design
That toastmaster is my favorite you have in the bunch my great aunt and uncles old home had a white one in it
The last one sounds like an AC
Also

Very cool and nice fans
Time to get these fans replaced
Sounds like a bird at 2:16
I had my parrot on my shoulder
@@nickhizfanz6569cute parrot lol
I have the rarest ceiling fans only on Middle East such as audex and MSB
i like how you literally have to jumpstart the friction drive like it’s a shitty car or something
This video was the 5th take because I couldn’t get the damn thing to spin
Bro looks like poke💀
Which Nick is this? I know at least 4 that are fan collectors
I’m Nick Strigel. I haven’t met any fan collectors just yet
@nickhizfanz6569 ah. Haven't heard of you before. You're the newest of the nicks lol
I like the last one
That first fan hauls ass
What’s the motor size on that toastmaster fan
The diameter is about 10”
Thickness is 4” towards the middle
