What do you guys recommend for cutting singlewall black stove pipe? Hacksaw, tinsnips?

tin snips work, but a small cutting wheel on a grinder or even a dremel will give better results.

Hacksaw. Once you get through you can twist the pipe and actually cut it pretty quick. Tin snips leave a jagged edge sometimes. Cut as straight as you can and be patient. IMHO.

Very fine tooth blade in a power handheld jigsaw. Bosch makes some superb blades for sheet metal. Very noisy.
