    Cutting copper pipe

    You guys/gals might already know this , but today I tried this and it worked well.

    I cut 1" copper pipe and smaller with a large wire cutter (hk porter rated for 500 Mcm copper)



    It cuts great much faster than a sawzall

    Didn't do any damage to the cutter either

    Hope this helps
