My foldover tower is guyed in 4 directions at two levels. I use 1/4 in SS wire 
rope and cut all 8 pieces using the Dremel cutoff discs. Go easy as the cutoff 
materiel is quite brittle. WEAR EYE PROTECTION.

Phil-

I never tried it on ss cable, but if you have a Dremel tool, try cutting it 
with one of their very thin cutoff wheels. I have a feeling that might work. I 
have easily cut off 1/8" nails coming out of a board whose other side I could 
not get to in order to remove it.
