I used an angle grinder with a steel cutting disc (or more accurately
several) before. But the stand for it isn't as nice as the chop saw I have

with an 18mm bore, so not exactly standard. And 18mm adaptor rings ain't
the easiest to find either.

I made my last one in under 2 minutes. What size spindle?

Also not sure if it runs rather fast for a
steel cutting blade - the ones I've seen say about 2500 rpm max.

that does need to be addressed, don't overspeed them. 2500 does seem slow though.
