Title: ABC
Post by: Arkyyoter on December 12, 2006, 10:47:27 PM
Hi guys....I guess I was feeling a little adventurous today...I was able to build 4 more ABC calls....I built 2 of them from small pieces of wood with which I had never worked...Amboyna Burl, and Camphor Burl.....those woods are very nice, and unfortunately very expensive  :o  I won't be messing with those much, but man are they nice woods.....the Camphor was a little hard to finish...I spent a lot of time on this call....detail work and undercuts in the lanyard groove....LOVE the shape...I also turned the mouth end a little too thin ... it will be fine, but it is thinner than I wanted....I made a BooBoo, my loss is your gain...it was going to be 35.00, but will go for 30.00 on account of this BooBoo!!

I also had a great piece of Birdseye that Rick Robbins sent me....lots of eyes!!

And a piece of Osage....it will be a bargain as somehow it got slightly off-center....I HATE it when that happens!!! But it sounds too good to cull....so :shrug:

Joe,

You better be careful turning that wood.  You will end up with "wood-turning" fever again and your wife won't see you for days and days.

Great looking calls,

Jerry
