I'd give them to my wife and tell her to see if she can iron me a shirt.

Back in the day I would have used those to get some delicious abalone. Better move quickly, if you miss first time they will suck themselves to the rock too tight to get off.

I use the steel ones on steel, and wooden ones on aluminum.
Never seen or had use for bone ones though.

Kinda like spoons but nott the same, ya hold them different and the practice dates back further.
Spoons are easier to play for me but i just discovered the bones yesterday.

Well, since anthropologically speaking, bones were first used as "spoons" before actual spoons were invented... that makes sense!

Pitchy, you're a hoot. Loved it. Too bad Hee Haw isn't recording anymore.

Pitchy · Post by **Pitchy** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 7:13 pm

Thanks gents, now i better go find them over the fence.

Just kidding, i like the spoons the best, heck a numb skull like me can even play those which is more than i can say about the banjo.

I use similar items/tools, only they are a bit larger. I use them in automotive panel beating, for bumping out dents, often used with a dolly. I make them from car leaf springs, or pieces of wood. The wooden ones are used on aluminum, so as not to stretch or work harden the alloy. They too are called spoons, slappers or flat hammers.
You would have to be Arnold Schwartzenegger on pcp to play mine in the same fashion that you do though.

I was at a rondyvoo ne time where a guy was walking around playing a set of bones. When I asked about them he was happy to show 'em off and even gave me a 2 minute lesson, which is all it took. About 6 months later I found a dead cow carcas and cut up a couple of ribs to make my own set.. They worked pretty good, but the wife didn't care for them.

I gotta go in to the butcher and gets some bone ones, once ya get that little twist twirl motion down so ya get that double tap it`s pretty neat.
