I got a bit lucky and bought a broken air dryer that had a big copper

The problem is that it is extremely heavily made and would not easily
cut with a cable cutter. I want to cut it up into pieces and clean to
make #1 copper.

Any idea what can cut it, maybe a circular saw with a small tooth
blade?

As you already know copper is sticky, doesn't saw well. For the stuff
you have unrolled try an axe, maybe splitting maul with a block of wood
underneath. Wire rope, cable cutters might work on it too but they are
kind of pricey. The miners would use air chisels to cut large chunks
into smaller ones...
