    Was welding the school up today.
    Used my new Mozart tool for taking the weld off. Great bit of kit.
    It slides along like cutting butter.
    But..... The the curves. Grooving the joints out was a nightmare and took ages.
    Does anyone have a good method to grove out circles or curves?
    Welding them was easy enough.

    now that im reading this, ive just had a thought
    Is there not a tool thats been out for yrs, looks a little like the mozart but a groover
    hand held, push it along or pull
    Never used one tho, prefer the p groover, that was, until i got my speed groover

    the bit of vinyl you cut off with your under and overs could of been used as a guide mate.
