Mike,

Just wrap a sheet of butcher paper tightly around the pipe and mark. Then
use a hacksaw, saber saw, or sawzall and carefully cut along the line.
After cutting use a sheet of sandpaper stapled to a smooth board to finish
the end. 

Regards,
Brian B.

Hello All,
Although I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, here goes...
How does one cut PVC squarely without a bandsaw or lathe?
I've tried a hacksaw, hand wood saw, roto-zip, and table saw all with poor
results. It's kind of sad that a quasi-experienced coiler doesn't know this,
but I'd rather be embarrassed to ask then be embarrassed of my coils : þ

Thanks,
