I use a 10" cuttoff grinding wheel on a chopsaw.( Electric miter)  Cuts out a blank in about 10 seconds. The biggest problem which is easily overcome is using a piece of hardwood underneath the metal as a support. Clamping the steel down with a piece of hardwood on top also eliminated some safety problems and made for a cleaner cut.

Justin Snyder:
If you use your chop saw, make sure you use the wood under the metal.  Unless your chop saw is made for metal it probably has plastic on the deck.  The material being cut will get hot and melt the plastic on the deck.  Justin
