    "ryco" air blower?

    A few years back on a mine site I came across a supply of "Ryco" branded air blowers that I took a liking to, they were compact and comfortable to use.

    Now, for the life of me I cant seem to find another one, and all I can describe them as being as having a standard air line coupling on one end, nozzle on the other and a length of hose in the middle that you bent to get air to flow through it.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    I don't know why you need the short section of hose? You could make the same bu screwing a few brass fittings onto an air coupler and brazing a tube on the end.

    There that old I think Noah used it to blow the saw dust off his work bench when building the ark. Best bet would be someone selling an old one on eBay
