to all OLF members (and lurkers)
All the best, have a Good One.

_________________
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.

Thank you Colin. Merry Xmas to all. Received this quote in an email this AM and really enjoyed it.

"And freedom comes with grace, kindness, understanding, and love.
Don’t take anything personal, folks.
That is your own self-invisible anchor that will
stop your boat of life from going forward."

Gary Busey

One again happy holidays and a toast to a perfect build for all. Timo
