| 804951 | 2009-08-28 07:17:00 | My Better half brought me one of those "Home user" compressors from Mitre10 about 4 years ago for around $150.00. Similar to this one (www.mitre10.co.nz) I put on an air filter, turned the pressure down - works a treat. Turn it on, throw the air hose out the workshop window- take the PC out side - by that time its got enough air built up to blow out the crap. |

| 804952 | 2009-08-28 07:58:00 | Are those compressed air cans one time use only? | convair (13650) | ||
| 804953 | 2009-08-28 08:33:00 | Are those compressed air cans one time use only? No but as with any other pressurized can (Fly spray for example) it will run out after it has been used for a while |

| 804954 | 2009-08-28 08:39:00 | Re use of can. Mine has lasted some time. I use it to blast dust and fine shavings out of small wood-turnings - saves starting the compressor up with its ensuing racket. | Scouse (83) | ||
| 804955 | 2009-08-28 09:30:00 | I used to use my fathers air compressor when I lived at home, a little *too* powerful, but very quick n easy! | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||

| 804957 | 2009-08-28 22:50:00 | Well I usually do a complete overhaul of my boxes this time of the year . I remove everything out of the case and clean it thoroughly . Remove the heatsinks/fans for the CPU as well as any other fans in the tower and give them a good once over, with compressed air . Since I started doing this I haven't had too many instances where the fans are going hard out to keep the temps down . Another thing I do is switch the PC's off when not in use . . . espeically during the day, when I'm at work . This year's gonna be an experience as it will be the 1st time I'm going to be cleaning out my server . . . she's a good 60-70cm in height, dual PSU's, 7 hard drives . . . what fun I can't wait . Thanks for the advise Chill . . . I've just recently acquired a server rack which I hope to install downstairs in the basement . . . also planning to install my 3550 Catalyst switch and Catalyst 2600 router . If all goes well, I will be cabling the entire house with UTP so that you can hook in to the network from any room in the house . . . will also save heaps of space and minimise the clutter .
