Once the pipe was marked out i clamped it to the bead of my wood lathe for cutting.

I used a jigsaw to make split the pipe into the 3 segments. each segment would make 2 blades so i would have 6 blades from this pipe.

Once the first cut is made rotate the pipe and clamp again, after the second cut a segment will be removed from the pipe. The pie then was able to be pushed down onto the lathe bead where it sat nice and steady for the final cut.
