Go with the grinder. It will be quicker and safer. Make the cut with the

Thanks. Will do like you say tonight, hopefully.

Don't forget to protect the bearings/bushings and seal off any openings into
the motor housing. It will be difficult to stop abrasive dust getting past
the shaft, particularly since you are trying to cut the shaft off flush. Try
packing a piece of string soaked in heavy grease into the gap.
