Terry,
I use a wet tile saw with a diamond blade. With them taped together, four at a time can be cut very easily and the cut quality is excellent.
Give each tube a wrap of masking tape at the cut line to keep the edges from splintering.

In a recent 1000 build, I used a cut-off wheel in a Dremel Moto Tool. Dropped through 'em like butter.
I use a bandsaw that has coolant. It cuts it like butter. Very minor splintering on the inside. I think the hack saw is the best bet for the money. The pipe cutter is an absolute no no. Pipe cutters need to put intense pressure on the tube in order for it to cut.
Thanks, Yuri. I was thinking the same thing about the cutter after I thought about it. I'm going to give the hacksaw a try.
I ended up using a compound miter saw on my last build and it worked surprisingly well. No splinters at all, I just taped the outside first before the cut.
