A Saber saw (jig) works fine on aluminum, mild or stainless under 3/16" If your saw has a orbit (where the blade kicks forward on the up cut) disable it or it will kick back on you.
You can also use the roto zip style bits, and a dremel to cut aluminum. We use them a lot on 1/16" 6061 and 7075 aluminum. It cuts fast but can get out of hand if you don't use a guide.
