Finally gave up on canned air (which I use a lot of) and got one of these.
Got a tip for us?

I have this one which has been solid for me
Funny you post that, I ended up getting one as well - from one of the big power tools companies. It has their usual big rechargeable battery brick.
I’m using it for a few things like cleaning difficult to access parts on a bicycle derailleur (the pulley wheels) and cleaning out the computer.
Along with blowing out dust from keyboards and deep, dark corners of my desk, this thing will get plenty of use blowing out dust from the blades in my floor fans throughout the house (we live in Arizona, so dust is an unavoidable P.I.T.A.)
An USB-C Milk Frother - bought it to mainly do protein-espresso, instead of using the Ninja mixer.
A little messy to start with...but it will be a smother way for small mixing, I think.
+ 2 new nasal rinser’s.
Had a red one of those below, but it’s a bit broken, so my practice has halted lately.

I just picked up a USB-C Apple Pencil, the cheapest one. I've been finding myself increasingly unwilling to print out sheet music, not only because it's just more paper, but also because the pieces are 50+ pages. I still print out stuff that's less than 10 pages or so. Anyway, since I'm playing as a collaborative pianist on two big classical pieces, those scores are quite long, and so I just have them on my iPad. I've never needed to do this before, and thus, I've also never needed to be able to write digitally on my music, but now that need has arisen, so I got the cheapest Apple Pencil available so that I can write on digital copies of sheet music.
I still MUCH prefer printed music, but sometimes, especially with very long scores, or in a recent case, things that people frequently revise, digital is just easier. It wasn't $75 I wanted to spend, but it's one of those things that I just had to do.

I rebranded my cheap $200 Framed 26er into an SE OM-Flyer. I based the look off of the 2013 OM-Flyer, but with the vintage pad set from the 2014 OM-Flyer.
EDIT: Forgot to mention I rebranded my bike because the 8 year old decals were peeling, and the bike company went out of business... so I couldn't get replacement decals. The peeling decals was triggering my OCD every time I went for a ride.
Things purchased for the rebrand:
- SE OM-Flyer decals from Etsy
- SE seat, and painted plastic parts orange
- SE pegs on rear axle
- SE 39t sprocket
- SE Medal headtube sticker
- SE grip SE Bikes Life donuts
- Changed mechanical brakes to Shimano Hydraulic brakes (Not SE rebrand related)
Last... I ordered a custom made black/orange SE dotted wing pad set with orange stitching back on December 4th 2025. My ordered was finally delivered today!!! So here is my completed SE OM-Flyer rebrand pics... which I refer to it as my "Oh-IMPOSTER"...
My order came just in time for the Rideout in San Diego this weekend... with the SE Team Riders who is touring to showcase the new 2026 SE bike line...

Picked up some fun stuff at my local thrift.
Mates of State (2000) and Guided by Voices (1997). Really happy to find these. In an ocean of worship & classical, I did not expect to. Funnily, I saw Mates live in 2000 while on tour promoting this record.
Probably over paid but I had to rescue these poor records - Tower of Power (1973), Ohio Players (1974), and Kool & the Gang (1979). These have some light scratches & sadly no covers but cleaned up pretty well so at $1.50ea I was happy to add them to the vinyl discography. I’ll get these cleaned up fully and some new anti static sleeves and blank dust jackets.

I also picked up some $1.99 books for the family.
Cars & Trucks & Things for my 2y/o, Minecraft: Guide to Creative Mode for my middle 6 y/o & Joel Rothmans Basic Drumming for my 8 y/o who has take to plonking out drum beats on my (well more like his haha) electric drum set & a Python book for challenged folks such as myself
. Always wanted to learn it … at least I think I want to learn it. We’ll see how it goes

Picked up a 2026 Toyota bZ Limited FWD on lease. Digging it so far. It's my first electric vehicle. We have Tesla Superchargers about 5 miles from my house that I plan to use for emergencies, and a Level 1 charger at the house for now, until I can have a Level 2 charger installed. For our limited use around town, Level 1 should be sufficient for us even though it's really, really slow charging.
