    Too rednecky????

    No such thing. After blasting, or any kind of bodywork, out comes the blower.I just bring it to a high idle tho'...amazing what can get blown off a shelf. Makes real quick work of cleanup. Also use a 6ft chunk of 1/4pvc with a chuck in each end. Makes quick work of under car cleanup.

    Redneckery, the ******* cousin of invention.....:eek:

    Oh hell no, they also work to clean gutters and blow light snow off the driveways. So many leaves get in my shop I thought it was just natural to use a leaf blower to get 'em back out.

    Skunx nailed it. Poor soul resides in the Red Neck Capitol of the south.
    Skunx...westside, northside or OC /Palatka?

    leaf blowers work great for drying off all the pretty chrome on Harleys. It stops water spots on paint and chrome. I would imagine it could be used to dry off almost anything auto related

    Naw... That's Pocho.

    Us Rednecks (like myself, and this is the truth,) fire up the compressor and drag the long hose and a high pressure nozzle in the house and starting in the far corner of the room futherest from the back door proceed to blow all the cobwebs, bootdroppings, dust and cat hair towards and out the back door.
    Sometimes it takes a couple of p***es, one to get out "the big stuff" and a second p*** to "dust" the furniture tops where the first p*** kicked up a bunch of floor dust on them.
    I aint no dumb redneck so I wear a dust mask and eye protection when doing this, and, move with caution when I suspect there might be a frightened-out-of-it's-wits cat hiding under a bed...

    Yes, I really do this.
    And yes, I am a redneck.
    Dad was a share cropper from Hereford, Texas.
    Can't get much more redneck than that.

    At least ya can't see straight out the back door from the front door of this house, and it's got a concrete foundation, not axles under it. :cool:

    But the front hose is coiled up on a rusty chrome Skylark style wire wheel bolted to the side of the porch...

    I've definatley not been accused of being a redneck, but blowing out the shop is the #1 reason I got a leaf blower.

    why did it happen that i read this not more than 1.5 hours after i did it, one question about it are you less of a red neck if your blower is electric
