Stop wondering and give it a go. Mo= st are nylon I think, flexible
when
thin enough. Lots of sizes to try. C= apable of marking the top tho.
I would take a piece of leather, fold= it, pierce twice thru the
fold and
thread a piece of gut. Couple of sti= ches to keep the fold tight
and maybe
guide the ends of the gut so the b= ight stayed constant.
those who could keep a lute in strings might a= lso have had the
means to
keep a hunting bird like a falcon; no shortage= of feathers then.
