My 1st handmade tone board (pic's)

[AWSparrows]

Its here, my first 100% custom open reed!

Here is my first fully funtional (that I would sell) custom call, Barrel, tone board, wedge, & reed.
Its short & raspy, it makes GREAT jackrabbit and fawn crys. It makes decent high pitch distress sounds but could be better I guess.
The body is 1&1/2" and 3&1/8" over all with the voice.

I'm lost...I thought you...ok...wait. 
You mean this is the first call that you made everything yourself on? No boughten parts...or am I totally misunderstanding you 

By the way...if your offering this one up for sale. I need to move it to the Hand Call Store...nothing personal

[AWSparrows]

You are correct....... NO MOLDED TONE BOARD! 

I'm not trying to sell it, just wanted to show it off.

[FinsnFur]

Ahhhhhh
So give us the low down on it. What's your board made of?
Or maybe that's a trade secret. 

[Pilgrim]

[AWSparrows]

The tone board is made from some type of speckled plastic. 

Would that be without getting too technical??

Seriously tho,, thats a nice looking call. The grain makes it look like you posted 2 different calls too. Cool!!

[vvarmitr]

What the heck! 

No price on it? What's up w/ that.?   Is made of spalted red oak?

[AWSparrows]

Thanks everone,
I would have responded sooner but the family and I were at our cabin for the week.

Brent,
Its real raspy, makes a great jack or fawn bawl. It does ok with cottontail but could be a little better.

vvarmitr,
I'm gonna hang onto it for a bit, polish the tone board, change reed shapes and thickness.
Its Spalted oak, but I'm not sure if it red oak.

[Bopeye]

Well regardless........it looks darn good.
