There are others here that use O. compressa I know. Pereskiopsis and Stenocereus are also pretty popular stock choices.

I've never used it myself but I was impressed by the photos of plants on the Cactus Art site because they looks so 'normal' - not bloated and misshapen as you often see with other stock.
