What do you use to supply air to your hot-air desoldering st

I bought a Leister Labor S7B hot air system.
Unfortunately, it's minus the air.
Air has to get thru 10 feet of hose with a wire
running down the center.
I need about 10 CFM at 10PSI give or take.
3/4HP air compressor running wide open can just keep up.
And I don't want to have to go to the garage to use it.
Centrifugal blowers that I have can't stand the back pressure.
Need something with lots of volume at low pressure.
Any suggestions for a cheap solution before I start taking apart the
vacuum cleaner?
Thanks, mike

To me, 'lots of volume at low pressure' means 'vacuum cleaner'. Buy one
at a garage sale?

The good news is that nothing is compulsory.
The bad news is that everything is prohibited.
