i think he ment, making a bow saw out out of your commando saw. Personnaly i got trouble with securing the saw ( or string if it's just a bow for something else ) to the bow with a good tention. It's either fixed, but no tention. Or it's tight, but falls off to easily.

and yes some of my stuff does see hard use. But i usually make sure that it's the cheap stuff that break... <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I got to say that steelsaw blades are more flexible that i have i thought.
