The historical italian way to make gut strings: demo.

This is just a demo of all the historical steps to make gut strings form whole unsplit lamb intestines following the historical italian sources (Mostly from Abruzzo/Neaples and Rome) and the video interviews done to the last ederly italian (Salle, Bolognano and Musellaro Villages) stringmakers. This way in Italy was highly standardized for centuries till 1910's about, when the use of whole unsplit lamb intestine was replace by split sheep gut strands using the splitting horn (see in the video). Then the use of sheep gut strands, in 1965-70, was replaced by the introduction of the modern way using beef serosa and the modern chemicals and cycles.
