If you use them to the point where they are very very thin you can just rip them off by hand. For the abs that is. The pvc may be a different story i suppose.

I would put it on (not in) a vice so that only the pvc/abs is on the edge and then gently hammer the rim down (out). The saw idea sounds good too. or drill a hole in the middle and use a needle nose pliers to rip them off.
