Default Shortening an Axle

anyone have a good way to cut 5/8 of an inch off an axle on a Sunday?

Custom install and have to shorten it.

angle grinder with a cut-off wheel...or 2 ? It won't necessarily be pretty...but you could always pull it later to have a machine shop touch it up
...I'm thinking a hacksaw would take far too long
