Hi Walter,
You're going to laugh, but do yourself a favour and try it before to dismiss it.
Tungsten is a wierd alloy, it can be cut extremely easily by certain things, like magazine cover paper.
You're laughing, I can hear you. Go try it and see. Use the paper the same way you would if you were trying to give yourself a papercut (don't), only use it to cut the tungsten. Make sure you use the back cover of a mag that's going to the recycling anyway, no need to mar a magazine you care at all for.
