RE: Surgical sewing?

And here's an old "Civil War" substitute for suture thread:

Clip long hairs from a horse's tail (the horse shouldn't mind too much).
Cut hairs to an even length, tie the bundle of hairs with a string, and immerse in boiling water for 10 minutes.
Remove the hairs from the water and store in a bottle of alcohol until needed.

If at first you don't secede, try, try again!
