I just cut the housing in my cut off saw... I know it cuts square .. just have to set it up level... turn it on and walk away EDIT On axle if they need a trim...I chuck them up in the lathe ans SLOW turn them then use my die grinder that I have a jig made up for to hold it and turn it in slowly.. might take 5 minutes for the axle.. then I give them a little bevel on the end On the die grinder I 90% of the time use .040 X 4" cut off wheels...love those wheels
