Oh, sorry about that, I was thinking the center hub tubing.
Bill, shoot me if butcher this. I've seen Bill use a Dremel with a
regular cut off wheel. I would think the diamond would do fine for the
hypo tubing too. I would just make sure that its cutting slow to keep
from getting the tubing too hot and damaging the temper of the metal
or melting it. After cutting off the pieces you can take a metal
cutting file and clean off any burs.
Hope that helps?
