I am looking to buy one.
What's your favourite soil pipe changer tool?
Thanks
 
Interesting suggestions
Doing a few, but would have to think carefully about £200 tho !!
File or grinder never do a really nice, uniform job and my 4' grinder normally carries a cut off wheel so do it's change wheel or grind with a cut off...
 
It cuts and chanfers to oem spec will take a pic tomorrow
 
Never seen that type before. Shame there's no YouTube from the mfr. Most put promo vids up - nerrad/rigid etc

Yes, just seen that nerrad actually do one like that - chamfer and cut

You can get it perfect with a file, what you on about!!!!!

Nice square cut with a saw, file all around at an angle, finish off with some 120 grit if you want.

Come on, we’re skilled craftsmen after all !!!!!!.......

Yes you can but it’s time can cut and finish off under 30 seconds

Cut and File would say around 2-3 mins over a few joints it adds up
 
Looks like a beautiful cut and chamfer but if you're cutting a long section in half you wouldn't be able to keep your hand on the handle as you go round and would have to keep swapping hands or letting go and bringing the cutting hand round the other side of the pipe. (If that makes sense)

Seems like a bit of a faff if they say it needs lubricant.

I think they include lube for the fittings when you push them together
 
I've always used a file or some kind of abrasive - 40 grit does ok. When you've got a fair few joints to make then you start to wonder "isnt there a better way?"
Bit like the plastic waste pipe slice things from rothy when they came along I thought they were unnecessary but then I used one and the speed, accuracy, lack of swarf and burr was an eye opener and now I wouldn't be without.

I think you are right, it looked like like some kind of cutting oil type of deal
