Title: Checkered moose antler open reed
Post by: BigB on February 12, 2010, 11:40:03 PM


I think I finally got a feel for the checkering tools.  Checkering takes a long time, and I have 18 hours of work into this call.  It was fun to work on this call, but nerve racking as well.  I've been wanting to try a raised panel call, and I learned a lot on this call.


Raised panel checkered moose antler barrel, with a moose antler toneobard as well.

I'm not going to checker another moose antler call.  The moose antler really dulls the checkering cutters in a hurry.  :rolleye:

Thanks for looking.

Brian

That is a sharp call. You will make the duck call builders envious with that one.
