Regarding chainsaws, I tried something that seemed to work pretty well. I had my son's Fisher Price (plastic) chainsaw in my juggling bag with the blade extended. On the blade I had a real chainsaw cover with "Stihl" (sp?) on it. In addition, I had a can of gasoline (empty) nearby. All during my performance, people (especially guys) kept asking "When are you going to do the chainsaw?". Eventually, as I reached down to grab the chainsaw for my finale, I started a tape player in my bag which had about 15 seconds of blank tape followed by the recorded sound of a REAL chainsaw. I juggled two balls and the plastic chainsaw with the audio background and they LOVED it. yraG "Jack of all trades ... Master of several"
