Help - dirty sensor

Hi Canberra friends.
I have been breeding dust bunnies in recent weeks and would dearly love to borrow a rocket blower from someone to have a go at cleaning my sensor.
Can anyone please help me out? Failing that, is there a cheap local or online place to buy one that someone can point out?

Hi Steve,
I have a Giotto rocket Blower.
where do you live or where do you work ?
I live in Gordon and work in Queanbeyan.
We may be able to organise a meet between your camera and the Giotto
Cheers,

Thanks Thommo
I will have to look into getting one for my very own. Do you know if their prices are competitive?

From memory the blower was around $20 so not too bad.

Big thanks to Christian D who helped me clean my gear over the weekend. Also thanks for the play with those extension tubes, they look like a lot of fun and will be going on my christmas list.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Steve,
glad I was of help.
When you get back from your trip to Vietnam and Cambodia (in December ?) - show us your pictures.
Cheers,
