    Yes I have those clamps. I just needed a better way of being able to cut items that are not so extreme (death wheel) or slow (Dremel). I think that cut off tool will be the perfect medium.

    I have a M12 3/8" stubby on my list. I also have a right handed circular saw on the list.

    I figured. And I assume, that as expensive as those 2'x4' precut pieces will be, it'll make cutting them easier than trying to rip down a 1"x4" piece.

    Since the Milwaukee tools were bought up.. get the folding hacksaw for smaller/precise cuts. Works with all sawzall blades.

    I have been eyeing that tool, too. I like it for smaller landscaping and smaller cuts where a chainsaw would be too much.

    Im thinking about selling my M12 3/8 stubby. I've never used it, but just added a rubber protector. Interested? $200 shipped, and including the rubber cover

    Straight, diameter cuts? Absolutely. Channeling out PVC length wise in 3 foot sections? Probably not the best tool.

    Dang! My fault.. I thought you were looking to do a cross cut, not a rip cut length wise. :annoyed: I guess I'm the dummy now.

    That said.. your best bet is a upright bandsaw or table saw. Or.... I'm not sure what exactly you're doing and wasting your time.

    If he's gonna rip it, he should just get the circular saw out.

    I have a 4 3 foot sections of 1.25" diameter pipe and I need to remove a .75" wide section to slip over the foam that comes on the Harbor Freight portable work stands. This is to protect the foam from getting tore up by plywood.

    If that's the case I would just rip them in half & use a hose clamp on both ends.
