This has probably already crossed your mind, but consider how you're going to stop the cut-out disc from falling down the inside of the soil stack. It can be surprising how a small, dense, rigid, insoluble object can block a pipe. Since you'll be cutting into a curved surface the disc will eventually be held in place just by two small uncut sections. You might finish those off by hand having poked a coathanger hook through the pilot hole. Or a longer than usual pilot drill might be enough to do the job.
