Cutting copper pipe against wall

[Rzzrmeanr]

Hi, i need to make a tee section in a copper pipe for new hot/cold runs, however the pipes are against the wall and i cant get my pipe cutter all the way round. What's the best course of action?

See pic attached.

Junior hacksaw or if you're fancy, a multitool...

Multitool with a bi-metal blade ,hopefully you have one

As mentioned junior havksaw or multitool then just file sharp edges

Anyone remember or use the Rothenburger tool that would form a tee in copper pipe ??

Wedge a screwdriver behind the pipe and cut with a pipeslice.

Re. Rothenberger branch former. I've used the REMS one, but only very occasionally. Also the branch needs to be brazed in, not soft soldered, and that close to a wall the extra temperature would a) scorch the wall, b) probably wreck the joints below.

Could use a wire hacksaw like Silverline Wire Hand Saw 330mm

As Chalked, above. Spring in the pipes also necessary to insert Tee.
