Well done for complting the blog, I understand some of this one. I know we carried out this task using Plastic pipe, but i did explain that your research should be on clay pipe work as this is fragile. when cutting clay pipes you would use a disc cutter, this shoulod of been noted at least in the risk assessment. I can't seeany mention of disc cutters on the blog. Colud you add to risk assessment please and check your grammer.
