Miter box for US 1-inch PVC pipe (35mm)

myminifactory

This is a custom-built miter box tailored to cut PVC pipe precisely at US 1-inch internal diameter. Note that in America, the pipe diameter is measured from the inside out, unlike other parts of the world where it's measured on the outside. The external diameter of standard 1-inch pipe actually measures around 33.5mm or roughly 1.3 inches. To accommodate a global approach, I standardized the box at 35mm width, leaving a slight wiggle room when using standard 1-inch pipe - not enough to cause significant concern, considering that the ends require sanding anyway after cutting. The miter box is designed for smooth, precise straight cuts as well as angled cuts at 15°, 30°, and 45°.
