    If your computer's graphics card fan is making horrible grindy sounds and on opening the case you find a world of dust inside, simply pop a football-inflating nozzle on your track pump and blow it out... Computer looks like new now.

    Anyone else found novel retaskings of bikular kit?

    Related to the above, I used a camera-cleaning rocket blower to dislodge slush and ice from my bike's nooks and crannies last winter.

    How odd. I had same problem and solved it by using degreaser spray on end of a cotton bud to remove the dust build up from the fan blades, then a tiny drop of chain lube on the bearing that the fan rests on. Sorted!

    If it's that powerful, hate to think what it would do to a camera!?
