You might also consider an electric hand-held jig saw with a fine-tooth
metal cutting blade. It doesn't make quite as much noise as a die
grinder, especially if you keep the metal from vibrating, and it does a
nice job. The only drawback is you need space behind the piece you're
cutting for blade clearance.
