In repairing a leaky section of my PVC main line, I wanted to be sure do a supremo job. So I left the hacksaw in the drawer and shelled out for a real pipe cutter. An LDR Industries model # 511 5151. (We're talking 1" PVC, for which the tool is rated.)
Well, it slices beautifully and easily, except it rarely cuts square! It leaves a slight angle most of the time.
I decided to go ahead and use it anyway, thinking if Orchard Supply and LDR bothers to build and sell the tool and it's recommended everywhere, the off-cuts are probably okay.
Did I screw up? Will I be repairing this section again real soon?
