Billy the Bus	PLEASE defend the SAW (59* d)	PLEASE defend the SAW	13 Jul 04
G'day, Since we seem to be defending aged folk instruments, may I put in a plug for the Musical Saw? They were just plain ornery carpenter's saws - one held the handle between your knees - held, and flexed the blade with one hand, and fiddled on the back of the blade (not the side with the saw teeth) with a violin bow... Mumble.... Disston (USA) and Spear & Jackson (UK) were the best builders of 'Musical Saws' that I recall.... Wish I could make the sound here.... Cheers - Sam
