cutting drilling pipe

[flatlander]

You can cut it,but how long do you wanna be there, and how strong are you?

Please post the video, really. Just make firends with somebody who has a torch if you don't wanna use the port-a-band.

fyi

fyi - thought about saving money and go with a recipricating saw which I had. I tried the saw and it did not go anywhere. I ruined 1 new metal blade and did not even get into the center. do not use anything beside a torch.

You can cut it with a Recip saw. Thats what I used to make some clean cuts on a deer feeder I made back before the spring.

It took about 3/4 of a blade per pipe.

I agree, please post a video


Cutting torch or plasma cutter are about the only things I want to be involved with on cutting drill pipe. Now production tubing is a whole different story the wall thickness is not even comparable

Unless your just making a few cuts, I would rent a torch. If your doing more than a few cuts it will be cheaper. We have a stack of drill pipe for projects on our farm and gave up on the saw/blade option very early on.

Good luck.

better idea, instead of renting the rig, haul them to Your local handy mans shop, (You'll probably have to use a trailer to haul them anyway)he'll have a torch, and probably won't charge ya more than 20 bucks....
Any welder/fabricator, muffler shop, or metal building company can probably accomodate Ya. Good luck!
