Need a fair amount of air, too.  The unit Moose bought requires "50-75 psi @
3.5 cfm" which is more than my "2.5hp" compressor would deliver
continuously.  (Meaning to run this unit, I would have had to wait for the
tank to fill, then only be able to cut for a few minutes before stopping to
wait for it again.)
