Craig, Indeed. Um, you don't own any rocking chairs do you? My cat solved the rocking chair problem, she springs to the seat and then to the top, and rides the waves. But then she may be planning ahead about the tails of any potential feline interlopers.

[LUTE] Re: Ownership
Carl, Congratulations on the litter, and for taking in the stray. I note that the expected comments on lute string supplies have come in. My one cat (the vet calls her dilute tortoise shell, I call her muddy grey) is a feral refugee. Born in a friend's garage with littermates, but then taken back to the woods by her mother, she returned to the warmth of the garage when she was barely mobile. We took her on, but now I don't dare type or speak the word cat gut (except that at the moment she is not looking over my shoulder as she usually is when I type). Twelve pounds of in shape feline, I don't want to argue with her. But for the list, I am getting comfortable with my first mold (a la D. van E. instructions). A few more weeks and I'll start finishing the planing of the ribs, and finally get up the guts to cut one to shape. The mold is the key, as you all know. I love David's course, and it was fully worth it. But for amateur shops I might suggest a different sequence in making the mold than he uses (no knock on his way, just that he is well practised and I've made my errors that one sees as one is in progress). Take good care of the kittens Carl, find good homes. If you are anywhere near NJ, USA we might consider a companion for our Lucky cat. You never look for a cat, you wait for it to find you.

yes; what makes it is the retro-style bridge. closely spaced wood grain on the sound board is a consideration and i'm starting to believe that a truss rod of some sort in the neck is an essential as well - particularly for those carved from a single piece of wood. maybe the new owner will discover early music ... maybe they'll join the list ... maybe they'll propose that the charango is a pukkah instrument for playing said music ... the glass is always half full. - bill --- Ed Durbrow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sep 9, 2005, at 7:29 PM, bill kilpatrick wrote: if you'd care to share in the dream, check this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?

I'm glad Rainer owned up about the Maine Coons - I'm always worried they're going to eat my lutes. Maybe you guys should start a Maine Coon list Martin P.S. OK I have a wife, three children and three cats, two British shorthair and one Blue Burmese - enough legs for anyone to look after.
