You can't buy little air compressors that blast air out. What you need is a home handyman 100ltr tank 100psi air compressor with an air gun attachment on the hose. They are around $200-$250 for a home standard one.

You should be able to get a very small air compressor which would do that.

Those very small 12v ones would work actually if you had some kind of reservoir which you could put the air into as they don't seem to have an air tank built in.

Would a can of compressed air make it easier for you?
Here's 4 cans on TM. This may be better for you if you only need the odd puff of air now and then.

topmaq have Nordic battery operated compressor kit at $100 - we already had a rattle gun set with battery & charger so got it without batt & charger for $46 .. but another option could be one of the mattress pumps.. the problem with blasting the inside of the sewing machine is ok, as long as the air & collected fibre is able to be blown out - I think sucking is a better option?
