well this is Bob do over the video I
just switched the camera so it's not bad
love looking myself so anyhow now I'm
looking through the camera and see
actually what I'm doing so this is my
mouth and flange right here actually and
my post is 45 almost 45 what I'm gonna
do as that cut problem my pipe 44 and
3/4
I'll give about 3/16 on each side for
the thread because usually these pipe
pipes and they go inside the thread for
the fitting in the flange
they never bottomed out they kind of
stop you know the golden maybe I don't
know 3/8 1/2 inch into the into the
fitting over all the fittings
yeah least about 5/8 or so I would sell
half an inch so if you start fitting the
pipe it's not gonna come through on this
side but it's all go maybe 3 7 18 inches
and just the way the pipe rates are made
they actually a little bit tapered so
it's all gonna stop so my measurement
was what 45 underneath so give about 3/8
of an inch on each side a slack
no here's my girl nice pipe threads on
one end and the pipe was no but they
were the size 56 inches on the other
side 4 and 3/4 yeah
44 and 3/4 that's what that cut it off
the total dimension was 45 and 1/8 so
I'm gonna go 3/8 R each side for that
compensation that doesn't cut it all the
way in
well here's my station for cutting their
pipes this right here is an old kind of
a tool from a set of holding the pipes
and cutting them and just my own piece
of 2x4 I clamped my 2x4 the tailgate I
put the piece of blocks right and
damaged my truck just happened to have I
have this piece I've said but if you
don't have it you can just use it a
while
doesn't love them my sit this way here
is a massive pipe got it four huge pipes
almost huge but here I got my pipe clamp
pipe cutter onto my mark right there
I just Knight it down and then once you
got this you just stop spinning around
it and it just goes at all and just keep
and touch the pipe and then go out
evolution or so you guys are pretty nice
gouging it and then I do a little twist
say maybe about the quarter of a turn
and then I go again
oh here's my helper hi binky here yeah
so I got another evolution give another
court overturned maybe eight to ten or
so how are you if you like it and just
go and that's the other one
give a little more twist to it one more
twist well I can feel its temper coming
through some was there
as it cuts through it gets easier Museum
you can feel as if this nice clean cut
oh here's my tool for cutting the
threads it's a manual tool you know for
me as a contractor which uses
occasionally which works fine and I got
different enzyme this is three quarters
of an inch and then I got a half inch in
for one inch pipe and those are the
pilot bushings so this is the for
three-quarters of an inch and I just put
it over the pipe and give a little get
going it's vice itself give so I'm still
using the same clamp to hold in the pipe
once they cut it so now they got the
gripping this gets going you can feel it
it's already got going and then you
definitely want to spray some lubricant
on it I just happen to have a liquid
range leaving white grease but to chair
a double before the engine oil any oily
lubricant will do it so what I do is
just you know just raise a minute
so it's just lubrication cranking
so as you keep on cranking on this right
here usual what's happening is when you
go about maybe I would say quarter inch
or 3/8 of an inch it gets so tight those
shavings jam into the color so in this
particular right here I can just reverse
with these little pins direction and
then I go backwards maybe of all times
one turn or so and you can feel how the
shavings clear and stop jamming the pipe
so I do that here's my helper maker I do
that and then again change the
directions and then keep on going and
keep on going and then spray some more
of the lubricant in there so every
quarter inch or so I do it and the way
they determine when I stop when I see
the end of the pipe flush with the
cutter then I got about roughly 3/4 of
an inch of the thread so that's that's
good enough so after that I'll just take
it off and
and it goes like the shavings yeah I got
nice threads well about the half an inch
or so but that should be enough I'm not
using this for any plumbing they're
guesswork
it's just get the threads into the
flange yes I'm putting some teflon tape
on it now that I need it really but just
I guess for good measure I'm just used
to nice tight fit keep still keep the
pipe in the same and then I'll thread
the same down of the flange onto the
pipe and once I thread this end on it
I'll go and thread the whole pipe with
this flange attached to it
oh by hand first as much as they can
that should be good maybe use a rag wipe
off the galvanization I got pretty good
good if so yeah that's good nice so now
we'll go and it's a just pipe through
the wall
