What is a good way to cut thru the carburetor body?

i know, i don't really want to do it, but i figured i got it for $5 and want to see the insides to see how it really works by making a cutaway cross-section.


What ways would you recommend to cut thru the carb body? A plasma cutter is a little to high budget wise.

Ok, it appears i don't need to do it right away; i just looked at the diagrams again and i think it makes sense.

But i would still like to do it eventually.
