I know there have been some discussions lately on cutting spiral pipe.
Options:
Hack Saw: I attempted a test cut the other night with a hack saw and a good metal blade, lets say it will take more time then I want to put into it with this method.
Rec. Saw: I don't like the idea of using a reciprocating saw and a metal blade as the cut will not be straight.
Jig Saw: Trying to figure out how to start. I assume a cut with the hack saw to break through the skin to allow for a point to insert the jig saw blade. May work fine.
Metal Chop Saw: Anybody done this? How's it work? Can you cut through a 6" pipe with a 12" saw very well?
New idea came to me last night.
Rotozip saw with a metal cutting blade: How straight of a cut could I get and would this do the trick?
Thanks for the input.
