I cut most stuff with my mill these days.

How?



Let's say that I want to cut a pipe, I put it in a vise and cut it
with an endmill.


So you have e.g. a 1/2" kerf?


On one end, yes, as big as the end mill. The other end (that is held
in the vise) is clean.

The advantage is that it is a quiet process, e.g. I can do it at
midnight when everyone is sleeping.

I'm just asking - unlike other posters I'm trying very hard to be
friendly and keep the spirit of community alive.
