Which steel bends easily?

If this small step on the ends of each leg is not extremely critical you might play with a Dremel sanding drum. I have found you can sand round rod like you need with the Dremel..clamp vice grips as a stop and let the drum naturally rotate around the wire tip from centrifical force and with a little practice I bet you could get a good enough trim. Dremel makes a very fine sanding drum that wouldn't take off too much per rotation. Worth a try..of course I am Bubba personified..I use a one half inch hand drill for a lathe.
