    Some extrusions have a central hole, if yours has one you can turn the ends between centers if you have access to a big enough lathe. obviously there will be a small pip left, that can be removed with a countersink or filed off.
    This method will produce close to perfect 90deg end faces.

    Being Aluminium I don't think a half centre would work well.
