Looks good Bill!! How much super glue?? 

[Bills Custom Calls]

The only place i used super glue is where a piece fell out after itwas finished thats why it isn't in the hand call store

[HaMeR]

Thats a plus. You know it's fairly stable then.

Thanks for the kind words fellers

Hey Pimp
I didn't give any of the spalted walnut to Jimmie he got some of the Highly figured walnut
I kept the really good stuff for myself

Does that sound selfish

Hey, Bill 

I just have to ask...  Did you get any cherry crotch in the deal ?  :roflmao:


Seriously, that is a quite unique looking call. 

You all know I'm not a call maker but I'm curious... 
I read about the super glue finish, it sounds like a good idea.  Would something like that not help harden and stabilive the softer parts in the wood?

I haven't got a virgin crotch cherry crotch in a long time  :roflmao: :roflmao:

I have never used the super glue finish so can't really answer that truthfully,but it sure seems like it should

[vvarmitr]

I guess it looked spalted through that Mason jar I was looking through.  :shck:
