Milwaukee battery operated leaf blower works great and is light and easy to handle.  Go with the big battery.

Have Milwaukee leaf blower and Stijl gas blower they work ok. BUT I used the neighbors compressor yesterday  that was a game changer doesn’t even come close to a leaf blower cleaned bean trash and even last years wheat trash lose. If you haven’t used a compressor you really don’t know what your missing.

Answer

We use a gas powered leaf blower for daily use but the air compressor we borrow from neighbour's works wonders at year end.  Looks like we only need a lowe cfm unit, thanks for all the responses guys!

Answer

I use a Mi-T-M screw compressor 
Puts out 125 cfm
Bought it new for 12550 two years ago and love it

Answer

185 is common.  I have a 210 but it is a 1953 Worthington with an International Harvester UD14 engine.   Starts on Gas, runs on diesel.   If you do get a big air 
compressor,  and use the 1" commercial jack hammer hoses, Always remember to pin the couplers when using the crow foot air connectors.  If one of the connections was to get loose it is like a crazy man with a 5# sledge hammer flying around in the air.

Answer

Be careful with used air compressors.  What fails is the bottom of the tank when it rusts from the inside from the water in the bottom. It may look fine on the outside but when it blows out, you can send the top through your roof.
