Title: A few of my first ones, let me know what ya think
Post by: iahntr on May 07, 2007, 06:34:55 PM
Hi all. I spun up a few, and I would like some honest feedback. They are all one piece, have an oil / wax finish, .204 for size comparison. Take a peek and let me know what ya think, good, bad, changes..... Thanks guys

Very, Very nice.  If those are your first ones then we are in trouble.  Keep up the GREAT work.  I am VERY impressed.

They look pretty darn good to me.  The finish looks excellent and that is the first thing I look at.  I would say that you are off to a VERY good start.

I concur with the general concensus. . .  means I like'um.
  I see some I'd spend my wifes hard earned money on.
                                  Keep spinning, and pawn your weddin' ring for wood funds.  Get too addicted ya might not need it anymore anyways. :roflmao:  ~KT  After flu humor is kinda dry huh?

If these are your first calls , then you are gonna be some kind of awesome if you spend some time here and learn from the true master builders on this forum. There are lots of good ones that hang out here. I can't wait to see your work after you've been schooled by some of our guys. :yoyo:

Man those are some freaking nice calls. Like everyone else said if those are your first calls, we are in big trouble.   My first calls sure didn't look like that I'll tell you that right now.

Wow guys, I gotta tell ya I'm a little overwhelmed by the response. Thanks so much for all the compliments, and the interest in my calls. Now I gotta be honest with ya all, I'm not sure if there's a one of them That I feel is ready to be sold. Whether it be a problem with the finish,(especially the spalted call) a hole not quite drilled right, etc. etc.  I'll think about it, see if some of the problems can be fixed on these, and if I decide to sell any of these I'll let ya all know. In order of interest shown :biggrin: Thanks again for all the encouraging words! Thanks for the help I've gotten so far, and the help I'll need in the future. :eyebrownod:  Scott

This here is a sign of a potentially good call spinner too.  :wink:

Make sure ya take care of those brass accent rings. They can show some blemishes and take away from your talented work.

Again, Very Nice start,  :congrats:
