I bought a compessor, mainly for work on my bike, but i thought i could use it for houshold tasks, like getting rid of cobwebs, do not try it, it does blast the cobwebs away,
but it all so smears them in some other place, and the compessed air lifts the seams of wall papper, houses are a pain in the A--.

Perhaps a vacuum cleaner hose and extension tip would work better?
