A wonderful gift from Brad H

A while back I made my first post to this forum. Shortly thereafter, I posted a call that I had made. It was made from Juniper. Well, Brad H of this forum, graciously offered to send me some juniper to turn. Naturally I accepted his offer, and offered to pay for the postage. He declined and sent the wood. I received the box and found four really nice pieces of Juniper, a square of what appears to be bubinga, and a 1" dowel of Rosewood. Wow, what a great guy. Just for no reason other than I am a newbie here on the board. He couldn't have made me feel any more welcome.

I finished turning a predator call, which is what I turn, from one of the pieces of Juniper, and just wanted to share it. The call is a howler, the wood portion is 3 1/2" long, the soundboard is howler from Al, at THO Game Calls, as well as the brass band. I think it turned out very nice. Hope you enjoy the call.

I've been turning Predator Calls about a year and a half. Had never touched a lathe before that time. I am having a lot of fun. I sell some, but it is not a business. I am only tirying to sell a few to get enough money to by more material to make more. I know all here understand.
