Cutting 110 mm PVC pipe

Where's dribble when you need him? ;-)


I use my compound mitre one often for cutting PVC pipe. Works beautifully. I do have a fine toothed blade in it, though.

or sanding drum on an electric drill

Its usually ok if well supported - but even then its possible to snag on a hollow pipe and snatch it quite violently. The old manual mitre saws would be fine.

I always support and clamp well anything being cut on that saw. I have a great deal of respect for it. ;-)

last seen trolling some other poor group ;-)

It's a pain in the arse if you don't, with some pushfits. Just a quick lick around the end with an angle grinder does the job.

Just use a jack saw ... no need to chamfer anymore, they push in with square ends

Isn't cutting wire (is that what it's called?) available any more. The stuff prisoners are supposed to use to cut through prison bars.

JGH
