Tube cutter

[loulou3012]

Hi ,
Please can anyone reccomend a good tube cutter for cutting silver tubing .
At the moment I have gone back to using a jewellers saw as my pipe/tube cutter always seems to leave a ridge around the edge of the silver core even after I have filed it and I keep breaking my blades on my saw  .
Many Thanks
Lou

I bought a mini tube cutter from Wickes - it has a burr remover on the end - it was under five pounds and works very well.

Hope this helps.

You should also find similar ones on ebay!

I use 3mm pipe cutter.  It does leave a burr, but I have Dave's deburrer from Art in the Round and also use needle files in conjunction, the combination works brilliantly and I have never had any problems.

The 3mm pipe cutter was about four quid on eBay.
