Reasons To Use a Pipe Cutter Instead of a Hacksaw to Cut Pipe | Home Master

About to tackle  my new box of copper pipes, tubing and whatnot.


Thought i might share with you my adventure





First, to secure the proper tools needed

Reasons To Use a Pipe Cutter Instead of a Hacksaw to Cut Pipe | Home Master

 I have this one, but I have my eye on a Ratcheting Pipe Cutter  from
Harbor Freight  They have some great deals on tools!
Check it out!
Off to twist away at some pipes!

COPPER..Where to Buy it!

Ebay seems to be a great source of wire and copper bit for me!
I just type in a search for copper scrap. I have gotten some sweet deals on boxes of various  gauge wire,
copper sheet, bar, tubing, and pipe!
Search Ebay for Copper Scrap 

If you like your wire in predictable little bundles of specific gauges, then FDJ Tool is the place for you!
They also have many great tools, metal stamps, and more! My wish list from here is never ending!
