anyone know where I can purchase the fan blade for the topper for my whirlwind.

thanks
 
The Grainger link looks good, but I would double check the shaft diameter on the original Whirlwind motor. I haven't seen one in ages and I don't remember what the shaft diameter was.
 
Is there a Grainger fan that you could wire in as a topper motor replacement? I've been looking all over for a whirlwind topper motor but no one has them anymore. I think it's a 26v motor from the schematic but I'm not sure if there's anything special that would need to be done to just wire in one.
 
I'm told this part fits/is stock as well - and cheeeep ;)

I got one of those and the hole diameter (fan)was larger than my motor shaft. I made a bushing on my lathe to adapt it. Its basically the same fan similar to Marco for a lot less.

I have my old fan if someone need it. Decent shape but with a goober on the blade edge from someone that stuck something into the fan. It could be cleaned up with a dremel tool and a sanding drum.

If for some reason that changes Mr.Groo gets it.
