Title: Afzelia Burl/Buffalo Horn
Post by: Yotehntr on February 10, 2009, 09:13:27 AM
I just finished this call in my "Top Shelf" style last night for a friend. It's an Afzelia Burl barrel with a Buffalo horn bead. It's carrying an o-ring fitted Buffalo horn tone board in my newest and favorite design. Both pieces have a CA finish inside and out, buffed and polished to a high gloss. It is signed (Yotehntr) and dated inside the barrel (under the finish). Do ya'll think he'll like it?

Brad,
    That's a beautiful looking call!!  That beading looks awesome, and I can't imagine the time it takes you to craft it!!!

I certainly like so I would have to think your friend should.  If he doesn't give me a shout I'm sure theres room for it here somewhere.  Nice job :highclap:

Nope, he ain't gonna like it one bit.  Better send it on to me and save yourself the embarrassment.   









:biggrin:


That's one great lookin' call!    :highclap:

That is a great looking call.  Putting CA on the inside of a call and getting is smooth sounds like a pain, but it sure paid off with looks.

Thanks guys!

Hey Hawk, I do thin layers with a Q-tip, The hardest part is the ramp on the tone board. I use Q-tips like a paint brush. I have to put it on pretty thick so I can re-sand it smooth then buff.

I have tried CA on the outside of a few calls, but don't have any desire to try to put it on the inside.  I would have Q-tips stuck all over the inside.   :rolleye:
