Sawing Wood

The long sharp teeth of the saw slice through the soft wood in seconds, causing in you such a sense of satisfaction that you spin and spit in awe of your own massive masculinity. The meditative motion in severing sections of wood so wonderfully satisfies your need for connection to the hard and focused workhorse that you were always meant to be. Examples of early saws date back as early as the Egyptian Dynastic Period, 3,000-2,800 B.C.E. According to Chinese tradition, the saw was invented by Lu Ban. In Greek mythology, Talos, the nephew of Daedalos, invented the saw. In fact, saws date back to prehistory, and likely evolved from Neolithic tools or bone tools. The early ancestors of modern humans, in the Pleistocene era, likely first used a jaw bone of bovid animals as a saw.
