I like to use my lazer eyes or sonic blaster. Or a 2mm grinder blade m&g flues are awful.

I'll be sticking to my hacksaw then

 

[stratplus]

That tin opener method looks like too much faffing about

 

[lame plumber]

Always use a grinder.....no problems up to now

This is how you cut a flue with no fking around. Any angle grinder and a £3 diamond blade.

My hackzall makes a beautiful job in a loft or location where sparks are an issue or u can't be fecked with grinder. Only use it free hand on multifit or similar quality. For m&g (valliant slowworm and ideal) I put a flue clamp on and use it as a guide for blade and to stop flue deforming as soooooo thin.
