Title: If I Could Show You How To..........
Post by: THO Game Calls on April 21, 2008, 03:18:33 PM
Make a tone board in under 5 minutes, and for less than a buck - would you be interested?  Oh - and what if I said it would be one of the best sounding tone boards you ever used?  Would you be interested?


I have to run out for a few hours, but if there is enough interest, I will post a quick tutorial this evening sometime after 8 PM eastern time.

Al @ THO

PS - I sent a few of these to a fellow call maker a few weeks ago and this is part of what he had to say about them

"All I have to say is WOW.    I've bought a bunch of toneboards from all of the folks that sell them.  I mainly study the boards and try to figure out how each one "ticks."  I am not exaggerating at all when I say that these are the easiest and smoothest boards that I have had the chance to drive.  The sound is spot on, no matter where you are at on the board - on the tip or down the reed a ways.  They have excellent range, both soft and if you get on it hard."

Al,

I'm not a call maker and my wood working tools consist of an electric drill and a palm sander. But I am fascinated by the work you guys do and the beauty of the finished product. I've read several of your tutorials and I'll read this one if you post it.

Thanks,

Pat
