    I don't think that you HAVE to get a wire brush to get the job done. Sandpaper would do just fine. For big chunks of rust, use a screwdriver or something similar. Of course, you can do it with wire brush too, but you do not have to.

    I have used a grinder and tin snips to cut away large portions. You can get grinding disks to fit into drills, too.
