Decided to replace the ventilation fan in the shop, had an old a/c condenser fan (220volt) to replace the a/c cond. fan I was using since the plug was running warm and the motor was somewhat over-loaded.

To control the fan I found an old a/c contactor and could wire to irrigation control 24vac.  So the free fan, free contactor and free 24vac, I needed to run thermostat wire (free) to some switches laying around (free). So I needed to run the control wire over head to other side of shop, couldn't reach a board that it needed to go over (already moved the ladder) so I'll just climb on the strake and easily reach the board.

So I commenced to climb on the strake from the back (engine is now in place on the 'New Engine Mount'), you guessed it, up went the nose of the Cozy and down went I and the engine.  Wasn't too bad until I hooked up the winch and lifted the plane back to normal position, the Mazda oil cooler was smashed by the prop flange.  So... the cheap fan has now cost more than a new one, even with remote control.

Anyone have a lead on an oil cooler?
