How do you cut springs?

Whatever you do, DO NOT heat the spring while cutting, IE: propane torch or using a welding cutter. Use either a hacksaw (might be slow but its the lowest heat tool) or a dremel or similar tool with a rotating metal cutting blade. (I suppose a sawzall would work as well but I do not recommend)

cutting wheel would work best...

 

[YelloEye]

Yeah, thats what I'm thinking too.

Thats waht I use is a cutting wheel but take short breaks while cutting so you dont heat it up too much
