    I think if I were faced with this dilemma I might just consider
    popping the bar on a drilling machine and drilling big holes into it.
    Then I could easily catch the drillings by putting a cardboard tray
    under the ingot, and melt them down into ingots I could work with.
    The remaining 'Swiss cheese' could be easily cut up into manageably
    meltable pieces with a cold chisel. 

Best wishes,
Ian
