Bill 7A ----- Original Message ----- From: J Riffel To: rv-list Sent: Sunday, April 20, 2008 8:41 PM Subject: RV-List: Re: Oil Cutter CHEAP I fab'd one from a pipe cutter, some homeDepot angle-iron, 4 bolts/washers/nuts and some plywood. It's Really Ugly, but it works and it's cheap. Been using it for about 8 years. Cut the angle iron so you make a square that 'holds' a oil filter and bolt it together. Cut the pipe cutter in half and bolt the adjustable part to one side of the angle-iron so you can adjust it to cut into the edge of the filter. I put "thick" plywood inside the angle-iron square with a hole for the filter pipe fitting to fit thru (so I could hold everything flat on the bench when I cut the filter) To operate, I just put a socket wrench on the filter and turn it while I adjust the pipe cutter enough to cut thru the 'can' around the filter.

Excellent suggestion, and fer sure a good way to test & quantify. As I currently have about 3-4 porcupines in the air, perhaps other RV-ers could take up the challenge and get some good, hard data and share their resuls here...
