    I wonder if BC's regular cold blue will darken aluminum? ...or brass?

    Sounds like the least expensive route unless you have a bandsaw already. Main limitation I have run into in general cutting is the small diameter of the disk limits depth of cuts. But anything thicker than the wheel radius is too big for that motor anyway. Sure are handy tools.

    i just used a hack saw and it took maybe 7-10 minutes. tedious part was cleaning up the angles with the dremel. came out nice, and on a poor mans budget.

    Used a die grinder with a cutoff wheel, gives a cut depth of about 1.5 inches.
