I'd recommend the sharp-disk type tubing cutter; there's no

I'm talking about, right? Looks like a C-clamp, presses a
groove around the pipe which then easily snaps in two?


Like this?

Holy ****, Batman! Get a load of this technological wonder:
"QUICKER CUT! Bigger, better knob allows you to cut tubing more
quickly!"

Shame on Ridgid for that kind of crap.
