Making A Tube Notcher (For The Electric Crosskart Build)

I built this tube notcher on the fly the other day with parts that I had on hand to help with the crosskart chassis build. It's not perfect but it was easy to put together, is rugged and can notch tubes ranging from 3/4" to 2" (19-50mm) in diameter at any angle.
