Veterinary saw assembly

A veterinary saw assembly comprising:

• a saw assembly body;
• a drive coupler movably coupled to the saw assembly body and configured to couple to a cutting string and drive longitudinal movement of the cutting string;
• and
• a tool coupler, wherein the tool coupler is:
• movably coupled to the saw assembly body;
• coupled to the drive coupler;
• and
• configured to releasably couple to a moving part of a power tool to convert movement of the moving part of the power tool to movement of the drive coupler and thereby to produce longitudinal movement of the cutting string;
• the veterinary saw assembly further comprising one or more guide tubes for guiding the cutting string from the saw assembly body to a cutting tip of the the veterinary saw assembly;
• wherein each guide tube has an elongate slit formed along its length for allowing passage of the cutting string through the slit;
• the veterinary saw assembly further comprising an elongate housing over the guide tube(s), wherein the elongate housing has one or more elongate slits along its length and wherein the guide tube(s) and elongate housing are relatively movable between one or more first configurations in which one or more of the guide tube slit(s) are aligned with housing slit(s) to allow passage of the cutting string therethrough and one or more second configurations in which the one or more of the guide tube slit(s) are not aligned with housing slit(s) to prevent passage of the cutting string therethrough.
