Hi Conrad
You can get small pipe cutters used by model engineers which are quite
rigid and work better than those intended for plumbing work.

cable Hello Michael a standard B&Q (Gamma for our Dutch readers) pipe cutter
has too much lateral play to actually cut with. I used to use them with Heliax.

Hi Conrad
A tip which Paul Wade published in MUD a year or so back was to use a
small pipe cutter. I have had mixed success with it as it tends to round the
edge of the copper which makes removing the waste bit more difficult. With
care you can make a dent round the copper and use this as a guide for a knife
or fine saw.
