The way I have done it is to place the part to be cut on a thick piece of wood on the floor. Then stand on it (nicely)
Use an electric hand drill on the slowest rpm with a bit of cutting fluid and 'waggle' the drill in a slow circular motion. Slow and more slow.
The pitch of the teeth is fine - one tooth will travel 8'' along the metal in one revolution.
When I say the pitch of the teeth is fine, I don't mean the physical placement of the teeth is fine, I mean it will be fine to use.
Although the pitch may seem coarse, the application it is being used for the pitch is OK.
