Repurposed Fans Help Around Shop
William Greyerbiehl of Bad Axe, Mich., repurposed two broken XL tall shop fans for his workshop. “I turned a fan base into a holder for my trouble light,” he says. “When working on my vehicles, I’m always looking for a place to hang a light. The thought came to me that I could use that disabled fan. The fan has an adjustment to raise or lower it for the best work height. It’s simple to do; you just put a block of wood where the fan motor was.”
He repurposed the second fan to keep his workshop comfortable. “I had no room on the floor, and it was getting in my way,” he says. “So, I got to thinking for a place to put it and decided to hang it from the ceiling above my woodstove. When the fan gets going, it moves heat around my shop.”
