Cutting steel is easy enough with a router provided the machines stiff enough and you use the correct tool for the Job.!
Yes compared to a milling machine it's slow going and your not ripping more scratching away in comparison but most certainly possible and something I've done many times.
Cutwells X5070 Blue Nanograin carbide 4 flute cutters are the magical tool you'll be looking for Robin.!!
