On another thread people were posting great alternative uses for leaf blowers. Got any?

Including:
Equipment cleaner
Brush fire starter (bellows)
Drive way cleaner (push broom alternative)
Cloth dryer vent cleaner.
Hot tub/pool line blower.

(Some where on youtube I've seen someone use one as a turbo/air ram for a car (?) engine.

What else....

I purchased a cheap leaf blower to have as a single use tool. The only thing I've ever used it for is to get brush fires burning hot, and keep them burning hot.

My other leaf blower is a stihl br600 backpack blower which I use for blowing leaves and drying the car after washing it.

my leaf blower works well for chasing my chickens and turkeys off the deck to my house.

I use it to wind up the turbine and jump start my F-16.
