Handheld portable tubing cutter drivable by handheld power drill and having a minimized working profile

A handheld, portable tubing cutter for cutting off a copper tubing stub out, wherein said copper tubing stub out has a longitudinal axis, and wherein said cutter has a minimized working profile, said tubing cutter driveable by a handheld power drill having a drill chuck, comprising:

• a support cylinder having a distal end and a proximal end,
• drive means formed at said proximal end of said support cylinder to engage said drill chuck so that actuation of said power drill rotates said support cylinder,
• a cylindrical cutting head adapted to cut said copper tubing stub out by contacting the outer surface of said tubing and being rotated around said longitudinal axis of said tubing to cut said tubing perpendicularly to said longitudinal axis of said tubing, and
• connecting means for removably attaching said cutting head to said distal end of said support cylinder,
• wherein said tubing cutter extends radially outwardly from said tubing, but has no parts that extend radially outward beyond the outer diameter of said support cylinder when said tubing cutter is in operation, whereby said working profile of said tubing cutter is the same as the outer diameter of said support cylinder.
