4" soil pipe

[cletus]

hi-was wondering if anyone uses a chamfer tool ,or could recommend a cutter for 4" soil pipe-and before anyone says it,i already use a hacksaw and rasp!! i have loads of soil stacks to do and would like to speed up the process a bit!cheers.

First what's the pipe made of?? cast iron, pvc, asbestos, pitch fibre

 

[cletus]

pvc-above ground pipe

 

[Plouasne]

Small angle grinder should do you then

I use a 4" angle grinder with a diamond blade for cutting and chamfering soil pipes as well.

As unguided says, a 4" grinder with diamond blade will cut and chamfer in seconds.

hey flat pack whats health and saftey for . I have no gaurd on me grinder becuase it gets in the way and I have found that once youve lost a couple of digits and run the grinder across yer knees a couple of times, you learn to get someone else to do it for yer!!!!!!!!

I would not use a diamond disc, just a normal abrasive disc will do, I cannot see where the elf's will come into the act, unless its to do the sweeping up 'cos the disc's do make a fair bit of dust

Unguided, my ex sil, told me not to swear at her, I was sitting on the joists on the ground floor notching the joists with a circular saw, when she stuck her nose in and screamed at me about the noise, I looked up to see if she was OK, the saw bound in the timber kicked back and landed in my lap, so she got a right royal mouthful from me, stupid cow wanted me not to make a noise, and it was a freebe for her as well, friends you can choose relations you are stuck with

hey plousne
I used to use a chainsaw for notching on sites years ago, but after a couple of kickbacks and nearly loosing me nose I soon packed that in.

Bit slow to answer you on this one, there is a monument tools tool for exactly this purpose, it cuts the pipe off square then chamfers it does a real professional job, and does it safely. This tool is a bit pricey and a little slow but what a job. YOu should find it here.
