hi greg
            this cannot be cut with a saw it must be cut with a grinder
there are some very thin cutting discs available which are ideal for this
some say to nick it with a grinder then break off with a hammer but this
causes many splinters not visable by human eye but if you try and tig weld
with a broken electrode rather than ground you will see difference
p.s. if its thoriated make sure you either wet grind or wear mask
cheers
