Default Remove a bulkhead from a glass fuse?

I have a plane I bought (saved from an inept builder) and it only had one bulkhead installed. This one bulkhead is heavy, unsymetrical and a general piece-o- . So I want to pull it out. Problem is, the wonder builder heavily glassed it in (helps fill the gaps) from one side. I need to get this thing out without destroying the fuselage.

There's a big hole in the middle of the fuse, so I figure I'll make radial cuts from the center to the fuselage skin with a cut-off wheel. Then I'll work at getting each piece out of there.

Anybody got any suggestions?
