who needs a tube notcher when you have an $8000 band saw for metal

@gusm5128 Ай бұрын

Stupid comment , you can use a $400 chop saw too .

This is the best and easiest way to notch a tube.GREAT CLEVER IDEA.GREAT VIDEO.

I have always called them a fish mouth. A birds mouth to me is a cut in a timber roof truss. Good video, the same cut can be done with a chop saw too. I used to do them with a worn flap wheel on a grinder.

Good shout on the chop saw. Grinder with a cutting disc also an option.

nice, clean accurate - doing it with the bandsaw bit long - I usually cut all with the grinder by just guessing how much to cut off to form the bird mouth

Thank you for watching. Using a grinder, for me , is equally fine on the smaller diameters. But I would more than likely use the saw for larger diameters, or multiple cuts on the smaller. The straight 90° cut that forms the mouth is approximately 20% of diameter for this example. (42 mm OD) This needs to be tested as an exact science for different size tubes.

I think the tube notcher would be easier and quicker, but the ones i found online only had hole saw 1 1/2 deep and I’m notching 2 3/8 pipe so having to flip the pipe and align the hole saw to the other cut seems to defeat the purpose of purchasing it. Chop saw it is! Seems to be the same result as your band saw but much louder and sparkier

hey mate good vid but, try this. with saw at 90 deg put the pipe 13 mm past the blade, (use a back stop at the other end). lock the vice. swing the saw to 32 deg take 1 cut rotate 180 deg take another cut, done no grinding. also can do stair rails. i can send a vid on fb. cheers john

So how Much of the pipe do you cut off when it comes to the point do you cut it back 387 inch how do you figure that out because I would like to use this trick for when I’m trying to join pipe for my smokers. My company I work for has a pipe not sure but if I didn’t have that option I’d like to be able to do this

@TheMetalFabGuy 3 жыл бұрын

Around 20% of the diameter on this 42 OD tube for the straight cut. It would be worth taking a proportion off first for different size tubes to gauge that exact science. Too little and it wouldn’t sit ‘in the saddle’. Too much and there’d be a gap on the ‘beak’.

Does anyone know if this is possible with a solid wood pole instead of a hollow pipe?

@TheMetalFabGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching. 👍 It would, but You’d also have to bore out at least half the diameter of the solid pole for it to work.

I Note your full message, and thank you for commenting, but Fair point. Get this a bit. Can obviously be done with a grinder,but a lot more accurate with the saw. Especially for the demo. Perhaps some kind of pre fabricated jig for the grinder cut would work. Thanks for watching and HNY.

To cut that far back, then cutting the points off, you’re wasting time and materials. Too many steps. 1/3rd of the pipe diameter is all you need to cut back. Then grind insides. That’s it. Done. Don’t complicate things
