    How to Notch Steel tube with angle grinder
    Many Thanks to John Warren for explaining this method. Top man.
    Procedure……..
    * At a 90° square saw position, the tube is positioned 12mm past the blade.
    * 1st 32° cut
    * Then flip the tube 180°
    * 2nd 32° cut
    Tip - A back stop on the tube set at 12mm past the blade ensures correct alignment of the 1st and 2 nd 32° cuts once rotated.

    I use 33 degrees if the pipe OD's are the same.
    2-7/8 saddle onto 2-3/8 use 45 degrees.
    2-3/8 saddle onto 2-7/8 use 20 degrees.
    These are common sizes of oil field tubing.

    Is 12mm the size of the gap when you butt the pipes together before you notch them?Where do you get the 32 degree angles from or is that the number that works well for all size pipe?

    • @TheMetalFabGuy
      @TheMetalFabGuy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      12mm is the position of the tube past the blade at 90° Before you cut the 32° mitred cuts.
      32° works for all.

      @moparnut6933 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @sputnik9708 I got it to work, I set my saw to 32° like he said and the cut was wrong, I figured out that he meant 58°. A square cut on a saw is 90° not 0°. I set a stop for repeatability and got the job done.
