Cutting a MG shaft

A friend in Texas was asking for the steps to cut a MG shaft..He needs to cut it off 9"...If anyone has a step by step procedure I will email it to him...

Thanks for the help...

I don't really understand why anyone would want to cut their TM shaft, the depth is adjustable at the base clamp and they offer different shaft lengths when you buy them.:confused:

I had to cut the shaft on my MK. The shaft was too long and covered up the lid to the rod locker when the TM was stored in the cradle.
