This is how we built a fan. We built the base and we supported the motor with 2x4 and 1x2 bricks. After that we built the blades with 1x8 plates and we added a small blade with small 1x4 plates. Then we put a motor onto the RCX box. Next we got 2 pulley wheels and a blue band and a 1 stud axle to attach to the blade. We had a great time.
We could make a fan with 1 axle but we made one with 2 axles. It went faster than the one with one motor.
Last week we knew we could make a car with one motor and we put one motor in it. Corrie and Eric made a trailer for it so it could pull the RCX box. But we made another car with 2 axles. We decided to try this with our fan - we actually put three motors in it at one stage - the blades went super fast!!
