Airplane Propeller Ceiling Fan
Convert any ordinary ceiling fan into a mock up airplane propeller.
Remove Fan Blades
This is my first instructable so hear it goes. Remove the blades from the fan. There were about 3 screws on each blade. It may very on other fans.
Pick Colors
Decide what colors you want. I went with black as the main color, and yellow for the tips. The color is really up to you.
Let There Be Paint!
I painted the blades black first, then added the yellow later. I used black Valspar interior/exterior for the main color. For the tips I used an yellow acrylic hobby paint from hobby lobby. It was about a 1:50. I had the Valspar in the garage.
Mask the The Edges.
Make sure to make the tips the same width so they are even.
Remove Your Masking Tape.
After its dry remove the tape. Tip: make sure your area is cat free. As you can see in the one picture the cat came out of nowhere and stepped on the wet paint. Stupid cat!!!
Finish!!! Put You Fan Blades Back On.
Put your fan blades back on and check it out! I apologize for the bad pictures. Phones don't take good pictures.
