that one works on petrol/oxygen. i dont think ordinary compressed air will give the same effect, it would be like trying to use compressed air with acetylene.

I was on a course in the States last year for work and one was demonstrated, was indeed fast cutting steel, ideal for urban search and rescue work for firefighters

They tried it on some alloy aircraft parts for us Airport firefighters present and it was a dismal failure but no real surprises there :lol:

took a couple of pics while I was there
