Seconded. I have a ton of Harbor Freight stuff in my garage and it's all been pretty solid. And agreed on the reinforced cutting wheels. I snap the "normal" ones constantly, so I only use the reinforced ones now. And the ones with the EZ Lock are fantastic for ease in swapping them out.

Get a Dremel with a cutting wheel (usually a few come in a kit with the tool). You'll find it very useful throughout the years beyond this DIY project. I've used that exact thing to cut these exact same wire shelves from HD for my pantry. You can also use the grinding wheel (also usually comes with a basic kit) to smooth the rough ends before you cap them. Cutting each bar only takes a few seconds with practice. And don't forget safety glasses! :D

Don't even need a beefy angle grinder. I've cut those exact same shelves with a dremel and a cutting wheel, takes just a few seconds to go through each bar.

Cartilage-filled areas like the ears and nose continue to grow throughout your life, so OP is accurate.

Mid life? More like end of life.

I'm in my 50s and I took COBOL in college in the 80s, but never used it in my entire coding career over the last 35 years. I know it's still out there, but even when I took the class the guys actually doing it were the age I am now.
