THO Game Calls

In my quest to make a howler for BodD, I have been perfecting my use of the Foredom a bit.  Since my first encounters with the Bit Of Death, I seem to have figured out where and more importantly, where not to put my fingers.

This is a Black Pearl Acrylic Howler that was shaped with the Fordom inside and out.  It has one of my hand made toneboards (not those molded things I was fooling with last week thank God).

I was told that you could not work acrylic this way, But did i listen?  Like that's a shock to anyone. 

This call is all hand made, no part of it was turned on the lathe.  Sanding and polishing it was not fun till the end, then I think it was worth it :)

Al,

That thing is truly amazing. Anyone should be proud to hold that call in their collection, or on their lanyard.

Nice job Al. I've never seen an acrylic call quite like it.

Al,

That turned out very nicely and I am sure that it sounds great too.  The first "hand killer" that you made was equally as beautiful, just more painful to make.
