When I cut a rod I use a dremel tool with a cut off wheel at high rpm's. I tape around the rod with masking tape to make a guide so I know the cut will be straight. I then cut along the edge made by the tape by holding the dremel tool stationary and rotating the rod. When I put the tape on, I make sure that the tape is on the piece of the rod that you are going to use just in case there are any splinters.

To those that understand no explanation is necessary. To those that do not understand no explanation will suffice. (Jerry Lewis)
