My only thought is that you can get 100 oz/in motors pretty cheap so why not get the extra power? |
Actually. the wire never touches the foam so zero cutting load. 30oz-in would be bare minimum. 100oz-in for heavier commercial production machines. 50-60oz-in for the lighter duty hobby type machines is fine.
