Re: [Shop-talk] cutting exhaust pipe






Its not as much fun as a sawzall, but I recently used Advance Auto's tool 
loan
program to 'borrow' a kit that included a chain cutter
(

Exhaust-Set-%284-Piece%29-Alltrade-Tools_9150002-P_N3494_T|GRP2083____). 
The
cutter did a perfect job of cutting straight and only needed a few degrees 
of
back and forth movement to cut through both stainless and steel pipe.  It 
is a
little more work than using power tools, but also idiot proof enough that 
I
will go that route again the next time I need to cut pipe while still on 
the
car.
