I got a bit lucky and bought a broken air dryer that had a big copper
coil inside. This is a heat exchanging coil with a copper tube inside
a tube.

The problem is that it is extremely heavily made and would not easily
cut with a cable cutter. I want to cut it up into pieces and clean to
make #1 copper.

Any idea what can cut it, maybe a circular saw with a small tooth
blade?

Thanks


A good screw drive Milwaukee would be my first tool to try.


I will try, I thought I had a screw drive circular saw

The white stuff is foam or ceramic?


urethane foam
