Yeah i am serious, got a better idea? if he gets the shavings off the threads first! There is a attachment that is like 6 inches to 1 foot long that is about 1/4 in thich that attaches to the air compressor handle. If you stick it in the cylinder and blow where else does the air go but back out the hole followed by the shavings.
