Those are sure good looking calls. I love turning Coco and Bocote. They turn so nice and look so beautiful when done. I'm glad that, at least at present, I'm not alergic to the stuff, since I like turning it so much. Nice work on those calls. :highclap:

I was afraid of the same thing when I started, but no ill effects so far.
