Hello to all,
I got on 3mm cf tube from rcforall recently I want to know how do I cut it. I searched on google and it told dremel but not everyone in India have a dremel. How do you guys cut cf.

https://www.google.co.in/search?q=how+to+cut+carbon+fiber+tubes

The second link shows a you tube video cutting carbon fiber tube with a hack saw!

Anyways a better video



Altho please make absolutely sure that you wear a mask, goggle & gloves while cutting CF, the particles are harmful if you inhale them or if it goes into your eyes and do it in an open space, not inside home for sure.
