And slower. Great for plumbing, not so much a 3" aluminum post with 1/4" walls
But hey, I might be wrong. 30yrs in the trades, but I've never tried cutting down an aluminum post with a pipe cutter
Also if the method varies from person to person, or one person uses a unique method, it's easier to get multiple vandalism charges to stick
Hey, totally unrelated, but how does one cut copper pipes mounted close to the wall?
"Oscillating cutters" are good for close cuts in tight spaces.
Cool. I saw those at the store when buying drill bits. Didn't know what they were. Thanks.
There's a tool that attaches to your drill or impact driver. Kinda expensive, but when you NEED it, it's worth every penny.
So throw money at it. Got it. ;) Thanks.
Its a big part of why plumbers cost money. Like the auto shop guys, a lot of money gets spent on tools that get used maybe once or twice a year, sometimes less. But you must own them to do the work.
Oh, I should clarify, "the trades" isn't exclusively plumbing. I can sweat pipes and lay out a house but I'm no expert
That being said I always used a little stubby cutter for pipes close to walls
There's other designs, including ratcheting ones that look so much easier than what I used
Oscillating saw with a semicircle blade and a piece of paneling behind the pipe in case you get squirrelly with it
