anyone here ever used one for cutting copper pipe in close quarters ?

if the work, I will look for one.

Turnnut, for copper pipe I've mostly used a midget standard pipe cutter — it's less than 2" long.  I've never used a chain-cutter but I've used "chain tongs," like 3-4' long pipe wrenches.  It'd be too easy to crush copper with them, I'd think.

I really need the type that cuts. On the lookout. Thanks

NOLATOOLGUY, thanks,  I have the small ones.

Rigid list up to 1 1/8"   and I will be working on 1 1/4"   and 1 1/2" copper.

my sawsall would be a last resort.

it's not a rush job.  "yet"

Been on some jobs where I had to use 2 different types of cutters on one cut.

Look at those two and you'll see the cutting wheel is in different places.
The screw feed cutter is good for cuts next to a floor or wall that the other cutter can't get to because you've run out of clearance.

or if its really tight a wire saw will work.
