    Another highly versatile Travel Tool. Was using it a few minutes ago to clean out one of the usb C ports on my laptop, & as usual when using it, thought to myself this is one of those tools where nothing else can do the same job. I'd call it an essential travel tool.

    @MudRunnerTD that bolt pack actually looks like a bargain for $110!
    @Cuppa as someone who has never had air tools, can that blower run off a compressor (like you'd use for your tyres) or does it require a compressed air tank?

    Yeah I can't remember what paid for it but I reckon it was about that. And at $110 it was %110 a bargain and saved me a heap of times to date. Sooo bloody handy.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    “Essential” 100% Agree Cuppa Mate!
    Especially out in the dusty country you’ve well and truly travelled now.
    I believe ours are the same faithful so far brand too, one stubby, one longer snout.

    If I may; @Cremulaor Mate, depends on your patience. Without an air tank it will take a shipload longer to slowly ‘fooff’ out your faithful paper filters versus blasting them with circa 100psi + of longer minutes of storage beyond a standard compressors pissy little 100ml of seconds.

    These posts make me think long and hard about getting serious about the Sigma compressor endless air project again.

    What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

    I dont carry any other air tools except for a tyre inflator, but originally thought I may carry more air tools, so fitted a 9 litre air tank. Since then I have thought once or twice about deleting the air tank, but have kept it because having the blow gun is just so useful. Have not actually tried it without the tank, but suspect @MB has described what it would be like to use without one. Some compressors would manage a better job than others but I reckon a tank is the go.

    From what little I know, most compressors we are talking about here seem to be high pressure/low volume.
    To blow the snot out of something needed we require the near opposite and or better a tank to volume store the ‘booofff’ release :-)

    Mate I have searched for a nut and bolt kit with a good variety of useful sizes on a few occasions and came up short. Just got a couple of smaller kits around the m6/m8 sizes.

    Then I see this, 20 seconds later found it on ebay!.. Would have paid for it on the spot if I was going to be around to accept the delivery! Legend. Thanks for that. Absolutely agree, having a good assortment of hardware on hand is up there with the most important things to have on the shelf.

    I have a container of assorted high tensile bolts too, they have been built up over the years every time I visit U-Pullit I always remove lots of bolts from the vehicle I am getting the part I need. They never check what is in your toolbox when you leave.
