Pros
  • Built-in compressor cuts up to 1/2 in steel with no air tank to haul
  • Plugging in a shop compressor raises clean cuts to 5/8 in
  • Pilot arc starts through paint and rust, and drag cutting helps trace templates
Cons
  • At 36 lb it is about twice the weight of a cutter without a compressor
  • Thicker steel still needs an external compressor
  • Costs more than a 56 A cutter that uses shop air
