Pie cut DP Fab
 
I had to make some weird turn for my new DP and the only way I could think of was doing some pie cuts. Never done them before, so out came the sawzaw. Piping is some of that thin ---- from the autoparts store.

It will looka million times better if he grinds it all the way down smooth imho...as long as his welds penetrated well

Jay set your saw up at like 8 degrees and make some cuts rotating 180 after each cut. Then we can make a DP when I come down on the 23rd.

My DP was pie cut as well but I can't take credit for doing it. Maybe you can try doing the same with a 90 bend and pie cutting it.
Anyway here is a pic of mine.

That DP looks like a flaccid choad :-\ Still, nice to see you got something that'll take care of the problem, even for a temporary fix.

Gotta wonder how restrictive that down pipe is with the cuts having that sharp of an angle.
