Handle for Eskimo box fan

[justjunque]

Hi all,

I think I may have posted this on Vacuumland once, but I figured it couldn't hurt to try here as well.

I rescued this Eskimo fan from behind a dumpster a year or two ago.
I don't do mechanical/electrical stuff, so I gave it a thorough cosmetic cleaning, and put a few drops of Zoom Spout oil in a couple of places where it seemed like it might should go.
It works fine on both speeds, has a nice sound to it, and moves quite a bit of air.
It has its battle scars, but looks decent overall.

What I'm hoping to find, is the carrying handle for the top.
Would anyone have any leads, or perhaps you have a parted out box fan with a handle that would fit this one?

Thanks,
Barry

Coincidence

Well, after checking for a handle on eBay from time to time, ever since bringing home the fan, I had all but given up on ever finding one there.

Wouldn't you know, as soon as I post on here, I found what I believe is the right one on eBay!
The measurements look right. Hopefully it fits.
I paid a little more than I had hoped to, but since the fan cost nothing, I guess I'm still ahead of the game.

If this one isn't the right size for my fan, I will come back and double check here!
