They help with Beyblade stickers; applying and removal.

They make you wish it was painted.
But that's getting off topic... In the off topic forums.

Yeah, but so do chewed nails.

I got my one hand slammed in a door so even if that hand could grow long nails they would look deformed, and iron finger training is definitely more than enough to grind your nails down, concrete can be pretty abrasive at times

One time my nails were too long and one bent back and almost tore all the way off. That's why I clip my nails and not chew them. Sometimes I forget to clip them and I end up tearing of the top part and having it look somewhat clipped.

As long as it covers the NAILBEDS.

Um, one time a steel door slammed my pinky, therefore shattering my fingernail, (there even were fragments of my fingernail inside my pinky) and I bled a pool of blood. It was everywhere. The point is, don't take your nails for granted. (My pinky nail is okay now)

That's a great lesson for everyone!

Well, I'm just gonna veer away from this somewhat cringe-inducing conversation of blood and shattered nails. Ok? Ok.

Awhile ago I ordered a Jaw Harp. I finally got it yesterday, and it is awesome! I mean, once I learned to play it and not hit my tooth with the metal reed, it was smooth sailing. It's so cool! Does anyone else own/play this under appreciated instrument?

W-what? I'm confused.
Jun. 27, 2014  5:08 PM
 
About what?

The fact there's a tooth instrument.
Jun. 27, 2014  5:12 PM
 
It's not so much a tooth instrument as a mouth instrument. You press it against your teeth (making sure to leave room for the reed to vibrate when you play it), close your lips around it, and push the reed, controlling your breathing and tongue movement to make different notes and noises. It's fun stuff.

Man the violin was irritating enough to play for me that thing sound like itd be crazy, how loud its it, can other people hear or just you?
Jun. 27, 2014  5:30 PM
 
Ironically, I can usually only hear the bigger metal part vibrating against my teeth, so I have to record myself to hear if I'm actually playing a song, or if it just sounds like sound effects from Tom and Jerry in reverse. It's fairly loud to the people listening, as long as you play it right.

Geez does that hurt, metal vibrating on teeth is definitely cringe worthy
Jun. 27, 2014  5:41 PM
 
Haha, no, it doesn't hurt at all, because you're holding it in your hand, and it's lightly pressed against your teeth. The only time it hurts is when the metal reed comes back and hits my tooth. Even still, it's not that bad, and as long as you hold it correctly, you're good.

So is it like some type of harmonica then?
Jun. 27, 2014  6:27 PM
 
Not really, it's kind of hard to explain. Looking up images of it should give you a pretty good idea of what it is.

Man...I haven't seen a jaw harp in AGES. I've never played one, but I can remember wanting on as a kid.

Got any vids of you playing? Where did you snag it, and if you don't mind me asking, how much did you get it for?
