    You could bring the bar to a local metals recyler; they often have
    hydraulic shears that will cut through a large chunk of metal both
    easily and quickly! Our local recyler has such a device and charges
    very little to do this. The great advantage here is that none of the
    metal is lost in shavings or cuttings, and the resultant smaller
    pieces can be melted, sawn up further, etc.
