But free molds on the other hand....

I bought these off craigslist when I got started and soon learned I'm never going to build a Martin '30s style 12th fret Dread . I want the space more than money so what you see in the picture is free to whoever can pick it up from West Linn, OR. (not including the benches, router table, table saw etc.....)

Interesting, first acoustic I made was a 12 fret Martin based on the 30's style.

Shame I'm in UK, I have a Wenge/Sitka set specifically for one, and don't have the mold yet.

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.

Any idea what it would cost to ship them to VA? I have a friend who lives in Portland who may be willing to pick them up and mail them to me. I'd be interested if no one local wants them.

Zac, I've no clue how much shipping is. It's about 45lbs of wood. Punch that into a shipping website with your address and you can find out pretty easily. I can't see it being cheap, but still maybe cheap for a mold set. You're welcome to it if you want it.

I just found out today that I have to replace two tires on my vehicle, so I can't afford the shipping right now. I'll withdraw my name, I hope they end up with someone in your area that can put them to good use!

It's Kevins. Glad the set found a home.
