1. A beveler device, comprising:
an adapter configured to removably attach the beveler device to a hand-held power tool operable to rotate a bit about an axis of rotation, to simultaneously de-burr and bevel a cut edge of a plastic pipe when engaged with said cut edge;
an adjustment ring, the adjustment ring configured to fit over and be connected to the adaptor and including a slot, wherein a connection of the adjustment ring to the adaptor through the slot determines the position of the adjustment ring in the direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the bit;
a guide plate, the guide plate configured so that the face of the guide plate lies in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation, the bit partially protruding from a hole in the center of the guide plate, the amount of said bit protruding from the hole in the center of said guide plate being adjusted by loosening an adjustment screw and manually adjusting the location of said guide plate along the axis of rotation of the bit; and
a vacuum attachment, said vacuum attachment being removably attached to said beveler device and connecting a vacuum hose to suck chips and debris through the hole in the center of the guide plate, the interior of said adjustment ring, and out through the vacuum hose.
