Find yourself one of those pipe cutters with the little cutting wheels. I have one that cuts up to 2" pipe and it was well worth the $50 investment. Hell, if I only had to plumb one tank ever, it'd be worth it.

Yeah I think those are the "PVC cutters" Im talking about. I just have not been able to find them in town here.

Does it cut up to 2" stuff and how much was it? I was there a few weeks ago and they said they did not carry them...I think the guy must have been confused.

They had a black handled one there that cut that size, i just needed a small one. Last ditch, hack saw cuts it quickly...quicker than the cutter if you have any strength in your arms

EDIT: I paid 15.99 for it.

Yeah I think I am going to stick with my first plan of using a clamping mitre box and hack saw. I have cut some like that and it gets a decent cut. Not perfect but close enough after its all cleaned up. Thanks.
