They look like infeed roller planer marks. Taking a normal thickness cut on a planer removes these, but a really light pass or running stock a second time results in those lines. They don't look like bandsaw marks to me, but I've been wrong before... idunno

cheers

Do you mean what the're from? Look like band saw marks on the right. Not sure what that mess on the left is from. I've never gotten marks like that from my planer.

From or for, either one helps.

I think the debris is left over from the mouse nest I couldn't get totally cleaned out. This is a very early Bay State from an estate sale.

Well it looks good from the picture. Those marks will clean up.

Mess is the right word

_________________
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.
