The size and number of blades can vary greatly in Fan patterns.
Set the H and W of a single blade in Repeat Patterns.
Then set the patterns into place using P2P, one pattern in each fan blade.
Or
Draw a 3 pt. arc as a reference line for the smaller curve and use Apply to place the blade patterns.
The Grid pattern will fit across all of the fan blades at one time.
