What is your Dream Blower?

I'm working on a project that I was assigned. Being I have an interest in showing cattle I picked the topic of "What is your Dream Blower?"

We all know of the Air Express III, Circuiteer, Boss and many others. All of these blowers have their own unique features and similarities.

That being said, if you could create a "Super Blower" or "Dream Blower", what are some specific features and advantages you would want your blower to have? Some of these features may or may not even exist. I'm open to all suggestions, but the more specific and realistic the better.

This assignment is very important to me, so I greatly appreciate the help!

It would be kind of like a Transformer toy -- integrated grooming chute, double blower and show box with on-board super quiet propane generator and big light bar that is all on wheels and self propelled.  Drive it off the trailer to the stall and unfold it and when the show's over fold it up and drive it back on the trailer.  Sweet.

Back to reality -- I have the old style Sullivan double set up and because the blowers mount so high, they are really top heavy.  I have thought about converting the thing to go horizontal with more of a wagon set up with a detachable shelf / table over the blowers to put combs, clippers etc on when working.  Sometimes need to go vertical for space issues, so would be able to place it that way too but with maybe a little more stable base.

We use the double blower set up from Sullivan's as well.  I like the power of 2 blowers.  This was kind of challenging for me, and made me really think about what you are asking.  I am the type of person that has what I have, and make do with what I have.

When I am fitting legs, I like to use the blower for a long time before I ever look at a can of glue.  I try to get the leg as close to fit as possible by just using the comb/brush and blower.  I do this because I like a very natural look rather than a phony look.  When our steers back out of the chute and head to the ring, I want them to LOOK as if they aren't all glued up with 2 cans of paint and glue on each leg.  SO...with that said, I would like to be able to have a lower air volume setting that will move the hair without blowing right through it.

The other thing I would like is to have the blowers mounted on the cart with the filter side pointed DOWN, instead of up.  I understand that the blowers need to be as far from the ground as possible to avoid having them suck up dirt and dust.  My problem with them having the filter side up is that things are constantly getting piled up on top of the blower filters.  They turn into a shelf and end up getting a can of pop spilled on them.  Or someone hangs a coat over the top of one of the blowers.  You get the idea.

Good luck with your project.

One with a high, medium, and low settings with a really long hose that doesn't blow beakers. Also, small enough that it could be easily be stored in a show box.

I am going to expand on the last entry.  A double blower system that doesn't pull 19 amps each so breakers don't blow.  What a pain at a show when you are constantly resetting breakers!  A hose management system of some sort.  The hoses are long and tend to get wound around crap and knock stuff over.  My husband built a nice cart for the two blowers with a shelf underneath so I cannot complain about transportation of the blowers, but they are heavy no matter what.  If you could integrate a comb/brush at the end of the hose that you could comb or brush at the same time you are blowing that would be magical.  I put a brush in one hand and the hose in the other now to try and straighten Hereford hair and if they were integrated into one unit it would be easier I think.
