ABSTRACT:
A pipe cutter having guidance means for cutting a pipe on a plane generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the pipe. A power tool imparts a rotational torque to a shaft having a circular cutting blade carried thereon at substantially right angles thereto. The guidance means, having a pipe contacting surface, is journalled onto the end of the shaft, so that rotation of the shaft and blade will not cause rotation of the guidance means. The method involves aligning the rotating blade at a preselected cutting point, imbedding the blade into the walls of the pipe until an arcuate portion of said walls is cut, and thereafter imparting an orbital motion to the shaft about the pipe axis to achieve the pipe cutting operation.
