| First
what we need is a relatively straight cut - without
some stable cutting machine it can be difficult, but
it can be done with ordinary 125mm grinder.
My
favourite method is to put pipe on the vice that has
jaws adjusted so pipe is about one third inside vice
but can be rotated easily with left hand. Then I take
grinder in right hand, placed it just above place where
I want to cut it, then I rotate whole pipe while I hold
grinder pressed steady on one position on pipe and make
shallow circle on whole pipe circumference with grinder.
Then when I marked where I want to cut pipe, it's far
more easier to cut. With little skill, cut can be very
straight and will need only minor finishing.
On
pic I placed 2 pipes that were cutted with method above
and I'm finishing it with grinding disc.
