I have cut alloys with plumbing tube cutters. With a junior hacksaw and wooden jig. With a Dremel and cut off wheel. I now use an arrow saw. Everything works but the arrow saw is really the best tool to use.

Most shops cut arrows to length so you could try phoning up your local shop and see if they will do it? I guess they would charge you though

Easiest cheap option for cutting alis is a pipe cutter. Be careful though and take your time and all will be good.
