i´m not ....... both the top and the bracing and patch stock had been in the RH controlled room for at least 6 months, so they should´ve been secured. but obviously something went wrong there.

HI, just reading this thread and wondered how seasoned the wood was before it was put in the RH controlled room?

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.
