Now that you've revealed it, there's lots to go wrong, like igniting
sawdust and ruining the saw and motor bearings with grit. I run mine
at around 1800 RPM with a small motor that will lift to slip the belt
when the disk jams. I've shattered a cutoff wheel on my surface
grinder and don't need a repeat performance while I'm standing in the
fragments' flight path.

Harbor Freight has a little 6.5 inch and a 2 inch cutoff saw:

and they sell a guard to go on/with their small angle grinders that you
could use like a table saw. Clamp your angle grinder in something
upside down:

Lotsa of ways to get-it-done...
