So I get an Ingersoll-Rand IR429 mini air reciprocating saw for a

Does anyone have one of these and run it on a Porter-Cable pancake
compressor? I'm concerned about the air requirements.

Once I try it, I don't think the place will take it back. Not a Borg
item.


A quick google search says it needs 8 cfm. Your pancake compressor
might be good for about 1/2 of that.

Thanks. That's what I was seeing and why I asked. There is also 90 PSIG/Max
spec on the tool itself.
