    my friend let me know up front i had to cut them in half but i did check the yard to make sure. the first ones we done we started a pilot hole with our 4 1/2 grinder and went the rest of the way around with a hackzall takes a little less than 10 minutes,(on the oxygen tanks) we bought a chopsaw from ace hardware still takes about 10 minutes but is alot easier , it also slices thru the small steel ones with no problem . the fastest way is with our concrete saw but its heavy and uses gas oil and blades. we are looking at bandsaws and plasma cutters and leaning towards the northern tool plasma cutter it has pretty good reviews. you will also need a heck of a vise and pipe wrench to take the handles off, like i said lots of work but definetly worth the effort.
