Aha. I clicked on "prep tools" and it wasn't listed. But when I searched on
the part number it was there.
As I said, my current need is minimal, so I'll put off getting one for now
-- unless that $50 minimum order size is real.

Actually they do, the Andrew MCPT-78.
We find it to work very well, and prefer it over both the drill mounted
prep tools AND a hacksaw. On 1-1/4" and 1-5/8" though you can't beat the
drill mounted prep tools, but they run a couple hundred bucks.
