Different, nice, I like them.

_________________
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.

Lovely and super-cool! [clap]

I pity the repair person who may have to try and replace it someday. [headinwall]

Pretty cool design.
It reminded me of the "airplane" bridges that took flight in the 1920's and 30's. Things with wings.....
