Ramsay
A very important thing in the making of a violin, after a good form, a right balancing of part against part, and all of wood in skillful condition, is the violin varnish. Composition:-
Linseed oil boiled,... ... ... 1 part.
Isinglass, ... ... ... ... 1/2 part.
Turpentine, ... ... ... ... Quantum suf.
Give two coats with this, then rub down with fine sandpaper. Then, best copal varnish, one coat. Finish then with boiled linseed oil, thickened with sifted 'rotten stone.' This gives a fine, smooth, and dull surface. Ramsay's violins are of surpassing tone; and he considered the varnish an important element in violin-making.

Medicinal properties of pure gum turpentine
Pure gum turpentine is an exceptional broadband anti-pathogen, anti-microbial, anti-parasite, fungicide. (1) When used properly, its other properties are benefits rather than negative side effects. How can any pharmaceutical compete with that?

Anti-convulsive.
Anti-inflammatory.
Antioxidant.
Anti-sclerotic (reduces the hardening of tissues, especially arteries).
