large pipe cutting

Post by Catgraphics »

Hello everyone I am having thoughts of building a simple pipe cutting device. I was wondering if anyone has or knows about something that could help me out.

Thanks you

Ive been thinking about building one myself,for smaller tube, and then today I got a call from a customer that was wondering if we could cut some large pipe (18-24") to make a 90 bend. So now I am planning on building a CNC pipe cutter, I seen plans somewhere I think they were using Mach3 for the software. I will keep you posted on my progress, as I hope you do the same
