So I decided to go for it and cut my pipes... The length came out just right. When it came time to drill a whole at the bottom of the pipe for the baffle I measured and measured and then drilled the whole. I inserted the baffle but the wholes didn't match up and they pretty much go all the way down to where the tapper begins . So my question is would it be ok to cut off one of the end caps of the baffle and leave like that or would I have to re-saulder it back on there? Or should I get the whole patched up and drill another whole? lol HELLPPPPP!!!!

The whole hole

It'll be ok to slice the end of the baffle.

Problem solved. I had a friend who's a welder seal up the first whole I made so that I could just make a second one that was a little further away.

Glad you got the hole sorted out. Hopefully that's the whole of it!
