ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for indicating lines along which cuts are to be made on a pipe has a clamp for attaching to the pipe. A longitudinal guide is fixedly attached to the clamp and a first bracket is slideably releasably coupled to the longitudinal guide at one of a plurality of locations. A pivot arm pivotally coupled to the first bracket and has a second bracket slideably coupled thereto at one of a plurality of positions. A laser attached to the second bracket projects a beam of light onto a surface of the pipe. A the pivot arm is rotated with respect to the first bracket the laser beam traces a line on the pipe along which a cut should be made. A marker is used to mark the line traced by the laser beam.
