Ratcheting PVC cutter
Does anyone know if anyone makes a ratcheting 3 inch PVC cutter,I have a 2 inch cutter that I got at Home Depot. Or maybe something similar that makes nice neat cuts without the mess of a saw saw.

What's a saw saw?

Milwaulkee was supposed to be coming out with an 18v operated 4" pvc cutter. I would look into that if you do that much of it.
Gotta have the right tool for the job!

I'll check on that,it's not that I do a great deal of it. But the better the cut is,the pipe fits into the fitting easier and deeper,gives me peace of mind that my pipe won't fall apart.

I cannot get a straight cut either, new blade or used.
Thought I was just "special" (well maybe I am, but not because of this at least).
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and stamps EVER.
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us to "Please Do Not Feed the Animals". Their stated reason for this policy "... the animals become dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

Use the string technique to start a kerf in the pipe then use saw and follow kerf. You can also slip a coupling over the pipe to your mark then use it as a saw guide.

My Ridgid brand PVC cutter cuts straight, but they cost 3-4 times as much as the Home Cheapo ratcheting cutters.
If more government is the answer, then it's a really stupid question.

and for the shavings:
"Better tell the sandman to stay away, because we're gonna be workin on this one all night."
"Dude, you need more than 2 wires to a condenser to run a 2 stage heatpump."
"Just get it done son."

I've seen a plumber use a large tubing cutter, not sure if it was a special pvc one or not. That could be another option.
My 2"ratcheting cutter dosent cut straight either. I have had a few rigid ratcheting ones for up to 1 or 1 1/2 pipe and the blade always broke after a dozed cuts on schedule 40. So I stopped buying them. I found a brand I never heard of in a ceiling a year ago and it had been working great ever sence.
