Hi - I want to remove a redundant, cast iron soil stack that is on an interior wall (it wasn't removed when the extension was built). As far as I understand I have 2 options to cut it into manageable sections: [1] use an angle grinder (fast but messy) or [2] use a hacksaw (slow but tidier).
As it's inside, and the missus doesn't want me to make a mess, I'll think I'll go the hacksaw route. But I haven't been able to find a hacksaw of sufficient depth that would allow me to cut through the pipe, which appears to be of standard diameter (about 110 mm). As the pipe is against a wall I can only attack it from one side.
Can someone please point me to a saw large enough to tackle this job?
Many thanks.
