Got the top section of the tower painted today. Also did an inspection of the fan. It is 6’ 2” and has 3-4 blades we will probably have to take out for straightening. Making some progress.

Got the fan blades straightened pretty good. Not like new but good enough. Got it mounted on the head ready to paint.
