I would have to say that a hack saw wouldn't work. Well it probably would if you want to do it the ghetto-try to save a buck-mickey mouse-make it harder than it has to be-way.

If you go to Walmart or Kmart you can find a good quality dremel for about thirty bucks. Trust me it's not a one use item. I bought a Black & Decker for 35.00 and I swear that thing has helped me with repairing scratches on my rims, clipping extremely long bolt stems, cutting out chunks of metal so my cold air extension would fit in the small hole without scraping everytime I start up the car. Trimming down the stems on my new motor mounts so that they go on easier.

Yeah it's kinda like a hand held circular saw but with attachments, no blade. If you do decide to get one, get one with the variable speed dial, and ask an employee for help finding a good one when you get to the store. Ask them for any tips they may have with using one. Try Home Depot or Lowe's if you can they're really helpful.

Good Luck, and don't cut off your fingers!!
