It's amazing that a 12 inch, circa 1948 Emerson fan can move much more air on low than my 1 year old, department store fan can on high. (Also 12 inch).

Single bearing Emersons are tanks, but trying to work on them can be a PITA. Whoever put the gearbox on mine must have summoned the power of Hercules to put the screws in! (Actually, it seems the finish used on these fans glues things together over time.) I sweat bullets trying to get the gearbox off for cleaning and repacking with grease, hoping not to strip the screw heads.
