What happens here

In this segment, the nibbler is used to notch a piece of copper pipe. The presenter highlights how this function allows for quickly creating a 'saddle' or cope joint, which is typically done with a coping saw. This demonstrates the nibbler as a faster and more convenient alternative for fitting pipes together.

Goal: Showcase the nibbler's ability to notch pipes as an alternative to a coping saw.
