I was hoping milwaukee did 1 but alas no.
What size pipes are they over there?

What about th bandsaw?

Could you it in a trench too?

Fixers have one on here for rebar on hire from speedy, they like it, teamed up with a cordless drill and chamfer tool perhaps

We have a cordless bandsaw which is ideal for uni strut and steel pipe upto 1.25”.
Would need be a big one for soil pipe !

 

[Furniss]

That’s a metal chop saw?

Yeah but only ever need square cuts so adequate no ?

Want nice square cuts using it today so much easier than all the other methods I've tried

Not been this empty since 2 days after I bought it.
Jeez there was some weight in that unit, redesign reuse some bits and trim some fat

Re drainage and pipe cutting

I’ve found this to be the best solution, 1 hand recip saw with wide carbide demolition blade keeps it pretty square and with a few cuts you can be very accurate

Meflex pipe chamfer tool (cuts side and top to square)

Very hard to beat the productivity and ease of these two

Tried all other methods from stihl saw to grinder to rasp file etc
