I don't know the details, but I do know it is possible. I saw video of one being used in San Francisco as part of a weird performance art demonstration. They were using it to torch robots (don't ask, I don't get it either). I would assume some sort of air source would have to be provided, maybe some sort of compressor. Does anybody know how much airflow would be needed?
