I hammer and sharp chissle should work. Or a saws-all or a dremel.

tonga is extremely solid. You would need to saw it apart.

I second the hammer and chisel suggestion. I've tried cutting Tonga branches with a saw and it takes forever, those pieces are extremely dense.

I bought one of those cheap tile saws awhile back for a project and tried it out on the branch rock and it cut it wet pretty quick. I would think cutting it with a regular saw could be done but may take awhile....
