Watching farmers work and overcome challenges with ingenuity and practical know-how is SOOOO satisfying.

yaayyy another marvelous contraption of Tim's!

Clamp piece of wood cross the pipe (opposite side of the cutting end). Find the centre and mount ball bearing there. Push it against guide to make cut. Centre is easier to line up and eliminates any wobble. Love your inventions.

Hello from the high Rocky mountains. Thanks for checking in.

The adventures continue….

:)..Necessity is the Mother of Invention...Nice tool!

Yay Tim, I really am encouraged to watch all that you fabricate, to me you are a genius!

For years I've been dreaming of making a pipe cutting arrangement a bit like this. I was gonna use bearings instead of casters and I want to somehow clamp the pipe between three sets of bearings so the pipe is tightly trapped and hopefully aligned so that it won't wander lengthwise.

Another great device there, Tim!

Good stuff, looking forward to see more

Another great project video and contraption! Very satisfying how the lining fell out in a huge chunk like that :)

Very exciting indeed.

Excellent work👍👍👍 . Thanks for sharing

Fantastic ingenuity and great video! Well done!

Brilliant.

Nicely done 👍

Seems like you can create interesting video about anything.

Nice machine! The lining went pretty easy once it was broken (so it had space to move), maybe if you heat the pieces a little bit expand enough for the lining ring to fall off

Nice product

Great job. I hope that pipe wasn't Asbestos lined.

Pretty sure it's not, Will. It's a water pipe, so can't think why they'd use it?

That went well bro, must be something in the water up your way. Safe travels

Tim The Mad Scientist! Or INVENTOR!

That inner layer came off because, by hitting the inside, you asked it to expand and it doesn't like that. Before you were hitting the outside and, like any concretion, it loves compression and is crap at extension.

I was thinking to myself, you're probably going to need a lathe to clear off that layer of epoxy, but it seems you're ingenuity is still outpacing your need for a lathe.

Very cool :)

I hope you have a jig to keep it true when you start welding.

The Pulmonologist in me is concerned that concrete lining is asbestosis. I am not certain how to test for that. You certainly are going to make a dangerous aerosol if it is. If you cut it under water it might be safer but I don’t know for certain. Be safe Frank

That was my first thought as well. Searching on it, Ductile iron (water) pipe has been made with asbestos "cement" lining into the 1980's, one of the properties was an extra smooth surface reducing the need for pumping power. Cant hurt to do a "wet" cut regardless, cement dust also isn't brilliant for once lungs.
