What happens here

After allowing the concrete to cure for three days, the presenter uses a specialized large pipe cutter to trim the new metal post to precisely 6 feet tall, matching the height of the existing solar panel posts. The pipe cutter uses four carbide wheels to make a clean, precise cut by rotating it around the pipe and gradually tightening it.

Goal: Trim the new support post to match the height of existing posts

Tools and materials

  • Measuring Tape — Measuring the post height to 6 feet
  • New Metal Post — The main support for the solar panels, now set in cured concrete
  • Specialized Large Pipe Cutter — Precisely cutting the metal post to the desired height
