The choppers are awesome for the cane that is too thick to comforably put in the wheeled nippers. The giant chopper in the above links are the one that have a wide throat and could handle something more substantial.

A tile saw would probably suffice. They have diamond blades on them also. We got one at Harbor Freight for about $49.
