A member of our model engineering society was given one of these as an Xmas present, and he demonstrated it at a recent meeting. Mainly advertised for air blasting and vacuuming computer keyboards and vehicle dashboards.

But, being in the middle of building a model Constitution in our TV/sitting room I immediately had other ideas for it, and went home and ordered one.

It is an air blaster with 4 speed settings. Not powerful as a 3hp compressor, but neither will it tear off keyboard buttons, or model ship’s guns.

Rechargeable lithium battery, which lasts about 20″ on the highest setting, and much much longer on the lower settings. Charges via a USB cable.

and has a clip on vacuum extension with small brush, just right for the ship’s spar deck and channels.

It wont remove firmly adherent old lumpy dust, or glued on fittings. But is excellent for fresh sawdust, sanding dust, and small loose parts.

Cost from Temu, $AUD35. Appears to be well made. Not too noisy. Charges quickly. It is a winner! I can see a couple more coming my way to live in the vehicle glove boxes.
