    It's not good, do not try it. Circular blades for aluminium are carbide tipped like in that pic but with REVERSED teeth angle, about 5 degrees to back. Find one with many teeth. It should look like this. 3000 rpm for a diameter up to 200 mm and don't push too hard.
    Take care, it's a dangerous job. If you don't have access to a machine with moving blade and fixed part (bolted to the machine table) give up and go to a shop. You can easily make one but you need to cut a lot to worth the effort. I have such a table but I don't have the camera with me
