Abstract: A pipe cutting device for cutting tubing and other cylindrical objects comprises a frame with a handle portion at one end thereof and an upper jaw portion at another end thereof. A cutting roller is rotatably supported in the upper jaw portion. A slide carriage is slidingly mounted on the frame and a power-driven roller is rotatably supported in the slide carriage. The slide carriage with the power-driven roller forms a lower jaw disposed opposite from the upper jaw, and the upper and lower jaws define a cutting space for receiving tubing or other cylindrical objects to be cut. The slide carriage is slid in a direction towards the upper jaw for narrowing the cutting space during a cutting operation. A power motor drives the power-driven roller.
