+1 for the pipe cutter for conduit. Strap it to your belt, and its easy as hell when you are in tough places. Pocket sized ftw.

But, when available, the 'sawzall' is not a bad thing to use at all.

which a tubing cutter will not work and i think the sawzall with fuck it up thats why i was planning to use the kit circular with a metal blade but i don't want to fuck up the saw
i used my bosses metal cutting saw which is made for cutting metal but it cost's like 300 and it works great

i bought this kit for $500 yesterday
i thought it was a great price
