This video demonstrates how I go about gluing a p.v.c. pipe joint. Although they do make saws and tubing style cutters specifically for cutting p.v.c. pipe which I do use on large diameter pipe (3″ and larger) I have no problem using my hacksaw on smaller sizes from 1/2″ up to 2″ in diameter. Also don’t forget to put your glue and primer inside a protective bucket, if you drop this stuff on the floor LOOK OUT !
