pneumatic axe

[Lord Bob]

hi everyone

i am quite interested in building a pneumatic axe like little hitter, but i have no idea how i would get the compressed gas to make the axe move. Would you use a ram, or would you have to get something else? because i can't find any powerful but featherweight sized rams anywhere.
Also, i have a 400 psi compressor, is this likely to be enough?
One final question, where could i get a suitable gas tank?
