We have 5 of them, used to use them to cut rod. But when we do have to cut pipe in place you can do it if your careful. We generally mark the pipe first using a "Wrap Around" (Available from most welding and pipe fitter supply houses.) Then follow the line! Don't let the cut wander from side to side of the marked line. Practice on scrap pipe first.

I am thinking about a portable bandsaw. Has anyone tried one of these and how does it work? Are the cuts straight?
