Does anyone know if the Milwaukee M12 little bandsaw will cut 1 1/4" rigid pipe that's been painted?

I believe it will cut up to 1 5/8" strut. So that may be tight for 1 1/4" rigid with paint on it.

Rotate the conduit as you cut.

Done.

It won't cut paint.

It's against a wall.

Hopefully on strut and not flat.

I would be able to pull it out enough to cut.

I'm just curious if it will even work. I figured someone might have tried it.

Will you be able to remove the conductors? Doing this always sucks. I usually just take a grinder to it, easiest way but makes reaming a nightmare

It'll cut no problem.....use it all the time on 1 1/4 rigid

It's demo, I'll be cutting right thru everything. I usually use the cordless sawzall but the little bandsaw would be nice if the pipe fits.

If it's against the wall the M18 bandsaw would be better, the guard on that retracts for flush cuts.

Lead paint?

You wont be carrying it around on your hip all day so go for the 18.

Only reason Id considered it would be if I was only tooled up with the 12 volts otherwise why? Sure its cute but seriously... for the money?

The 12v is all most people need most days.
