Have you noticed that we are being completely ignored by the OP?? LOL!!!!!

Well you know us dumb liberals. Too ****ing stupid to use a lathe and
a custom made pipe cutter attachment to cut thin walled stock. Wait
until he tries to lop off some square tubing in his lathe. That
discussion will go on for months.

You just have to ask yourself what kind of a moron would ask if a tubing cutter could be used for cutting off tubing to begin with....


The whole thing is bizarre. Last week it was the fabricator that
didn't know how to drill holes.

So, not only is he a right wing nut-case and one of the biggest assholes
I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with on usenet over the past
15 years or so, but he's also dumber that ****ing box of old
door knobs--he's one of the very few individuals who go immediately
back into my killfile if they happen to escape and to whom I
wouldn't provide any sort of assistance even if their lives depended on it.


Windbag arsehole needs help with the most basic of shop tasks.
Leftards to the rescue! But the supposedly successful businessman
balks at investing in the obvious solution even though it's
ridiculously affordable and could be overnighted. What could be
better?


Please explain how your dry saw is superior to bandsawing 6 pieces at a
time in less than a minute without the noise and flying chips. The
parts STILL have to be deburred/chamfered. What am I missing?


Absolutely nothing. You're right you need a lathe for this job and an
operator from overseas because there's nobody here that can handle the
difficulty. Don't forget to keep complaining about that last part
because it makes everything go faster. Whatever you do don't buy or
even try a better tool for the job because it won't taste as good as
$300 of cheeseburgers.
