In case the fan wants to fly out and slice your throat I guess

Geez. Scary looking considering my kid can fit her fingers into a basic box fan …and tower fans too.

I can slice a carrot in about 3 seconds if I feed it in from the rear.

I've done it with mine. It was fun, but bent the blades a little.

I did that with an old box fan I found on the side of the road in a garbage heap. I replaced the switch with an old 3-way toggle switch I had in the garage and it runs like a charm. It sounds like a turbine engine starting up and has amazing airflow. This was someone else's trash 35 plus years ago, and it's still going.

And to think, back then nobody would had a second thought about it being around the kids.

Buy it for life? With those blades of doom its going to be a very short life.
ObviousB0t t1_j684gds wrote
Don't forget to oil it.
Not a joke, checkout fan collector's pages for advice. These old motors and bearings were designed with user maintenance in mind.
hey_mermaid t1_j686uve wrote
I don’t have a lot of intrusive thoughts but that would change if I owned that fan

It's just to indicate where the blades are
krs1426 t1_j68n5ms wrote
I have a fan like this one and because of the way the fan spins it doesn't really hurt to stick your finger in the front. Stick it in the back tho...not sure how much finger you'd be left with.

Sorry I don’t need a lesson on that buddy, you should know as well as I do. 12 years for me. Apologies for being defensive though, not my intention to take it out on you.
