You would probably also want to wear a mask to keep from breathing metal powder. Eye protection as well!
Comment on how to cut aluminum pipe with hardly any comments about flock cameras

I had to cut some steel poles off a trampoline frame.
Mind you, i’m not very strong but I was able to use a hacksaw I bought for like $20. It had grips on both sides.
I cut off all the poles in about 20 min. Just gotta keep it level. Makes very little noise.
I wore grip gloves to make it easier.
I highly recommend hacksaws with grips on both ends as this really helped. I bet someone stronger than me could cut through a pipe in about a min or 2 with one of them.
Barely making any noise.

You could also use a sawzall, but imo the best of both is the portaband.
