Miter box for US 2-inch PVC pipe by WidescreenJohn

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

Similar to my other miter boxes (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3034823 and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3037167), this is a miter box that I made specifically to cut PVC pipe at US 2-inch internal. I don't know if this is how it's done in the rest of the world, but in America the pipe diameter is the inside, not the dimension on the outside. The external diameter is actually 60.6mm or roughly 2.4 inches.
I decided to make this a uniform 62mm width (you know, to be globally-minded), so there is a tiny bit of wiggle room when using standard 2-inch pipe, but not enough to be a big concern. The ends need to be sanded down after cutting anyway.
The box is designed for straight cuts as well as 15°, 30°, and 45° cuts.
Please note that I made this modification quickly by request, so the photos are actually for the 1.5" version, but the design is exactly the same.
