Got this fan for $70 on auction Carolina Heritage Cabinetry in Wilkesboro. Plan is to slap a filter cloth on the back and use it to filter out fine dust particles which settle in the shop. Also as a paint booth fan. It is around 13,000 CFM.
Had a long discussion with General Manager as to why the business closed down. Long story short, well established years ago, use to do around $8 million in sales, but as the staff started aging and passing away, the old hard working sales folks who sold with good commission could simply not be replaced. Sales fell below $1 million and they lost money. Residential cabinets, doors and commercial cabinets. He is very critical of the working ethics of the young generation. Says his best sales guy use to do around $4 million a year, would be working in the office designing sometimes until midnight. The last young generation sales manager could hardly get to $80,000 a year.
