Cutting 180's into 90's

How are you guys cutting the 180's in half on a horizontal band saw? The leg always wants to hit the arm coming down.

A good vertical band saw will do it no problem. Not a fan of chop saws, over heat the part when cutting, nasty burrs, loud, dusty. But sometimes it gets the job done.
