    Im an aircraft mechanic by trade, aluminum is your friend! it is very easy to cut, although using a sanding disk with a dremel or die grinder would be preferred.
    Just remeber its a very soft metal and will mark up easily. Using a hack saw would be the best hand way to do it.

    If you can use a band saw your cooking with gas though!

    Any other questions let me know!
