How I cut my blocks hose barbs

Well I started building my waterblock today (w00t :D ), and what had been bugging me for the longest time was how the heck I was going to cut these barbs in half. I had seen in an other thread where someone stuck it in their drill press (where the bit would normaly go) and used that to hold it, but unfortunatly I don't have a drill press. So I rigged this up with just some scrap wood and clamps. Actually held fairly nicely.

If the images load slow, they're off my home server and a movie download is probably hogging the bandwith or something.
 
Hmm... I just used pliers to hold it in one hand and the dremel in the other.
