Madman touche. I also have asked people about welding aluminum. I have been told it's one of the hardest metals to weld. I also hear you have to be quite good at welding. I imagine a muffler shop or body shop could. But fans are balanced and weld weight could be different offsetting balance.
I asked but answers seemed more hassle and money than I care to spend. If anyone reads this has welded a fan how did it come out. Les Not an owner of a welder machine but I have a solder machine. I looked and I have flux core. I called my friend a plumber who soldered copper piping in my basement. He explained the flux to me. I learned up and will continue to only use flux solder. Les |

I Know there's no solder machine. I was joking since he mentioned a welder as a machine. You could call a vacuum an electric broom or even a garbage disposal for dust. You can even drive a vacuum well the Billy goat mower vacuum. Ya I'm not great at English. I can spell that's I it. Thanks for Kirby guy tip.

I've never welded aluminum, though I would like to learn. I know a couple guys who have the equipment and on occasion they weld broken aluminum car parts for me. Like transmission cases.
Second on kirbyguy's statement. It would simply be a matter of balancing, which is easy. I've balanced my aluminum fan blade already, because half of it had been sitting in water for a long time and lost a lot of weight on one side. |
