No No!! :nono:

 

Wrap some insulation tape round and use a 115mm thin cutting disc(plasma )

Well it was only a guess :) Thanks for the info pete

insulation tape a a nice sharp hacksaw blade

cutting disk second that matey LOL!! or even tin snips depends in the thickness of the stainless, trial and error is your answer.

I use an electric chop saw as I have done miles of it LOL.A dremile type tool with a cutting disk works a treat as well,then bind the ends after cutting for a nice neat job.

Many thanks for all your suggestions fellas,I'll

try some of em out this weekend!!!
