[SML] Ceiling Fans on Battens

[Bill Conner]

I was going to suggest same as Bill S but could not find left and right
hand fans, necessary to blow stuff around. Definitely think larger diameter
and max number of blades at slower speed will be beneficial in not moving
batten and moving bags.  I feel the make your own blades that work to blow
bags to be a bottomless pit of problems, balance being primary.  Probably a
tight budget too but the best and most innovative fans of this type I know
is https://www.bigassfans.com.

Good luck.
