Rusty Antique Kerosene Oil Fan Restoration & Testing 

Is yours as noisy as this one? I can't imagine anyone accepting the noise and the smell of kerosine. I used to live in a very poor country and we used kerosine lamps during power outages, and I know kerosine lamps are smoke factories. They are 10% light, 90% smoke. They stain the walls if you put the lamp close to the walls.

The noise is generated by not applying any/enough grease in all areas. And/or the wrong type. Quality kerosene has little smell though of course is still there. Hey, well done to the OP for saving another one though

It looked like it was 150 years old. You had better be honest. You would know better.

What's the point? In 1960, electricity existed.

not in nevada do some research@@someguy9778

😊😊

haha right away in the 1st 5 secs I could tell this is not old lol but dipped in mud 😂

It's pewter not aluminum

Yes it's very important

It speeds up aging 👍

that's generally how and where you find them buried in caleche clay in the desert I know it looks that way LoL maybe he should have urinated on it for a month or two instead. But really thats how you find them in pack rat nests or other rock and tailings from mines.

Stop doing that. Its not needed.

You are also right but you can see that there was a lot of nationalism in it too.

Dude stop hating on random creators

​@@aahands nationalism?? Wwhhhaaaa..???

they all do the same.

Pointing out a fake restoration is not “hating.”

Thanks for information

Nah, he just prolly put that in the mud for a few days and OoOoH rUsTy

It could have been actually abonded, but he most likely dumped it in the mud for more dramatic effect

from such a great Vietnamese mechanic he is good and what a compliment

Many thanks!

yes because it's that old Thanks for watching ❤

Google is free you know…

They were made in the late 1800s

Good grief man, how long have clocks been made?🤔

Steam engines were machined far before that. Stirling's are a cake walk in comparison. 🤷

lol, it's not 150 years old. A good cared vintage car from the 70ies will work long. This fan looks like it's old like my mother (about 60 years old).

@@SmaugAltair Oh boy, hope she is in a better shape 👍😁

Thanks for watching!❤

Thank you! Cheers!

Many thanks!

Thank you! Cheers!

That's absolutely fine. Thanks for watching. ❤

Thanks 😊

Hmmm since it’s based on a sterling heat engine you might be able to just get rid of the kerosene bit and just put it on top of your wood burning stove. Should work just as well so long as the heat source was high enough. Most sterling heat engine fans are much smaller than this one. Being designed to be used on top of something like a major heating source such as a stove to help recirculate heat in a room. That way you might be able to get a room better heated using far less fuel. Rather than all of the heat going straight up to the ceiling some of it is redirected into the room. That way the energy from the woodstove is used twice. Once to heat the room itself. Then some of that wasted heat energy is used to power the fan itself. It’s the same idea of putting your electric ceiling fan on reverse in the winter months. Folks just do a RU-vid search for sterling heat engine woodstove.

The did make refrigerators that ran on kerosene. My Stepmother's family had one when I was a kid. I remember seeing it.

Thank you!

You are right, it is very loud, it is impossible to sleep with it.

Thank you! 😄

Thank you! Cheers!

You fix the screws

Thank you very much!

Thanks bro

Im guessing you could of done better.... you sound like that kind of person

It's a Ky Ko fan. Originals were made in the 1920s. Plans for building at home have been available ever since.

Как вентилятор. Но без света. Он как самолёт работает на керосине. И крутит лопасти. Переносной вентилятор. Раньше не было света и многие вещи работали на топливе.

Only Fan

💀

E essa não foi a primeira vez. Esse ventilador não é movido a vapor e sim por um motor sterling movido a querosene.

Thank you! Cheers!

on which page.?
