Buy an air compresor.


Air compressors "make" and store water. That's why they have drains on
their tank(s). They also can produce a lot of air so a regulator would be
required to keep that high pressure from damaging your computer.


My compressor has both a regulator and a water trap. I just normally use
the shop vac. Same thing I have used for 45 years to clean out computers.
In the old days of mainframes we had to vacuum out the paper dust, and
normally every couple of months used the blow function to clean the card
cages in the tape drives.
