Title: A Few closed reed calls
Post by: kevinm on November 20, 2007, 12:59:43 PM
Im new to the board and wanted to share some of the calls that I have made.

(https://forum.finsandfur.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi46.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Ff136%2Fkevinm94%2Fnewcalls.jpg&hash=43fcd7b0a7455877667c0025dea2950400ac15dc)
From left to right:
Leopardwood, Purpleheart, 2 Claro Walnut, Myrtle wood, 2 mesquite, bubinga, and the little fella is a purpleheart squeaker.
The rifle round is 222 cal for a size reference.

I turned a few more this past weekend, just haven't taken pictures yet.

Thanks for taking a look

Kevin,

Welcome.  Nice shapes on the calls.  From the looks, I am assuming an oil finish.

Thanks !! Yes these are an oil finish. All of my new calls are a oil / wax finish to help protect the wood a little better. Also give them a nice sheen too.
