How do you cut pipe profile on a big pipe?

Depends on how big of a pipe. Up to 6 inches, I would use a chop saw or miter saw, but you may not have one. A hand saw will work and hopefully you would have enough ability to cut reasonable straight, but possible not. It takes some practice. You can measure from the factory end and make a series of marks around the pipe and a saber saw. This is on PVC. Cast iron, you use a cutter that more or less aligns itself. Steel, there is a cuter available or you can cut it with a torch. On PVC, unless you cut it at a severe angle, there is usually enough overlap on the fitting to allow for some minor errors. If you are going to be cutting enough to justify it, you can nail two 8 foot 2x4s together to form an L this will give you a straight edge to mark the pipe and a way to hold it. Rest the pipe in the inside angle of the L.
