Patty,
If the majority of the bones you need to cut are femoral heads. A simple and
cheap fix is to get a mallet and old dull large knife. You can easily split the
bone in two with a couple god wacks an the back to the blade with mallet. No
mess, no bone dust from the saw. You then throw the bone in 1/2 decal and 1/2
formalin until you can cut off you section with a scalpel.
