I am starting to place the ducting away from the cyclone. I am using Nordfab 7" for the main lines. Almost immediately I have the need for a piece shorter than the standard 60" length. I can make this by cutting a 60" pipe and using an adjustable nipple.
My question is what is the best way to cut this 7" diameter pipe? I do not have access to a metal cutting bandsaw and the future need to cut pipes will arise at unpredictable times, so I would rather not take each piece as the need arises to a shop with a metal bandsaw. I have a standard 12" hand hacksaw, but I won't have much stroke after I subtract the 7" pipe from the 12" blade, nor do I have a really good way of holding the pipe while cutting. My other obvious choice is a handheld electric jigsaw with a hacksaw blade. A little worried again about control and getting the cut started. Also I have a reciprocating demolition saw that can be fitted with a long hacksaw blade.
Any suggestions on how to do this? I am hoping a missed an obvious home remedy.
