I buy the best AMERICAN made metal cutting abrasive blade I can find. The Chinese made junk will glaze over and give problems. [Reply]  [No Email]

Otherwise a gas cut off saw would be best. [Reply]  [No Email]

Just one machine and a can of gas to lug along. And a gas saw will just rip thru the pipe. Take a long while to gnaw thru 3" with a sawsall... [Reply]  [No Email]

Mine was smaller dia. then 3" ? It cut through good and I did not have to rent anything. I had some I pulled out with the tractor and it easy broke where the threads were at the couplings.
