I saw something

Looks like the Wolverine has taken up music to smooth the savage beast within, or he could be a joiner on his lunch break.

These are musical saws and shouldn't really be used for hacking your way through 50mm dowling and the like. Precision instruments apparently, although I'm not sure you'd get them on as hand luggage in any commercial flight. "What do we have here sir?" - 'It's my musical instruments officer", "Woodwind, string or percussion?" "Er, none of these things actually, but they are completely harmless until you shove them between your legs!" " I think we'll be having these in the cargo bay sir...!"

He was playing his saw this lunchtime on the Royal Mile - where else would it be? - and attracting a small crowd. The girl seemed fascinated by it as was I, but I did wonder what would happen if it slipped out of his left hand while he was playing it. Would that qualify as an industrial accident and in the interests of Health and Safety, shouldn't he be wearing safety goggles, gloves and a hard hat at the very least?

If you want to know what a musical saw can sound like when played under the correct conditions then have a listen to this.
