Hi, i need to make a tee section in a copper pipe for new hot/cold runs, however the pipes are against the wall and i cant get my pipe cutter all the way round. What's the best course of action?

See pic attached.

Anyone remember or use the Rothenburger tool that would form a tee in copper pipe ??
 
Re. Rothenberger branch former. I've used the REMS one, but only very occasionally. Also the branch needs to be brazed in, not soft soldered, and that close to a wall the extra temperature would a) scorch the wall, b) probably wreck the joints below.

Could use a wire hacksaw like Silverline Wire Hand Saw 330mm
