Get a garage sale fan.
Paint the blades black.
Get some sticky back logos for the bottom of the blades.

I just got a cheap used ceiling fan and a can of dark grey hammered finish spray paint. Came out great.

I have a 3 blade in my garage. IMO, it is manly looking as it is all aluminum and it. Works good.

Two old ceiling fans pressed into service after a quick paint job.

I've bought five brand new ceiling fans at garage/estate sales in the last two years for less than $10 each, brand new, in the box. They are all white, but you could paint them black and add decals. I don't know why people buy them, then don't put them up.

Since 2005 Kevin, you should know better than most, the answer is NOPE!!

I have one similar to this that I bought from Menards. Mine came with a 5 speed control. On high speed you hear it. If you want something quieter, go with a house fan. Even on high speed, you hardly hear them.

Get a 60" Hampton Bay industrial fan from Home Depot.. it's $90 now (was $72 when I got mine), and it moves 10,000cfm. It's serious business. It's plain looking, 3 blades.. nice and sleek. I'd go as far as to say it's the best value for a fan that you can get

I guess I should have. Just having an off day I guess. (walking away now with head down and kicking dirt)

When we were at Lowes the other day, they had a 72" fan with (I think) 6 blades on it, but I didn't think to look at the price.

I have two cheap fans in my garage that have been running 24/7/365 since '99 or 2000. They don't make any noise at all, but I do have to take them down and paint them. Currently they have the shiney brass body to them. My ceiling is painted black, so I think I'll paint the body of the fan satin black and paint the blades gloss red.

I have this fan, works great and moves a lot of air.

The Hampton Bay that I mentioned is from HD, but I think you have to order it online, since they don't carry it in the stores. It's even got a nice wall mount speed controller too

One thing to be careful of when you paint the blades is keeping the weight equal.
They need to be balanced.
The higher the speed the more the need.
I have seen small lengths of solder used.
(Tape on the back side to keep them out of sight.)

Kevin,

The one from Lowes is $299 I believe. I was checking it out for my new garage. Pretty cool look to it.

 

[Dan_inthewind]

I have owned three brands of motorcycles and have others I would like to own. So I am going to paint the names of the brands on the blades. May use a decal material, undecided but will paint complete fan and do the model name in factory font and hoping to also use factory colour. Since your a Harley guy, maybe you can do the Harley models on the blades.

Hope it works for you.

Yep!!!! $299. I just looked it up on their website. It's called a.....Harbor Breeze 72-in Slinger Helicopter Brushed Nickel Ceiling Fan with Light Kit and Remote ENERGY STAR That's a mouthful.

It looks like it has nine blades to it.

 

[mustang347]

^ I have that fan in my bonus room. Its freaking sweet!

 

[Kevin54]

Welcome Mustang.

I see you're from the Capitol City. I'm not too far from you, maybe 45 minutes west. There are quite a few others from Columbus also. along with a lot of Ohioans. Don't be a stranger and make yourself known.

 

[Kevin54]

Not for a Harley Garage, but these would make a good conversation piece. A helicopter and a Biplane and a Jet.
