I like the EMC motor, too.

Here's the 115-volt version of the little fellow, plus what it powers (found it locally a while back):

A very nice piece of Jensen history, certainly has that wartime look to me.

Thanks for posting this!


I believe I have a small compressor with the 115 volt motor.
Probably air brush size.

Have you posted this up on Smokstak Gil? I would think it would cause quite a lot of interest. Maybe post the link back to here?

i would not be comfortable posting a link here in Smokstak. It's owner, Harry, i believe has a rule against posting links to potentially competing websites.

You might well have Gil, as the 110V (and 220V) motors from EMC was used to power the little K.J. Miller "Atlas" airbrush compressor.
(K.J. Miller being the same manufacturer that made the "Junior Engineer" 3 in 1 toy steam engine.)
