    Ceiling Fan Blades

    When you break down ceiling. fans keep the wood blades, I bring 4 - 8 of them when I go camping or fishing they start a fire and keep it going!

    The wood from the table sides of bbq grills burns very well also.

    You'd be surprised at the market for some of those fan blades and brackets...

    I'm thinking the next time I find a brass chandelier with brass globes & tubing & stuff, I'ma make a scrap dragonfly... the ceiling fan blades would make awesome wings.

    Lots of ideas with a google search of "ceiling fan blade art"
