South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

Very nice! I have never turned a pen, but I've made a lot of turkey calls (trumpets). I've used a lot of exotic woods and really like a CA finish. Generally, I use at least 20 coats, wet sand to 3000, then buff. They turn out like they are coated in liquid glass. I'll post pics of a couple in a minute.

 

This is very true.

 

I want to make some duck and goose calls. Do you use the kits or do totally from scratch?

 

Here's a couple of pics...
Snakewood from Burma


Olivewood


Black&White Ebony

 

No kit. I do them one at a time, free-handed on the lathe. The mouthpieces are made from elephant ivory, or water buffalo horn and the brass ferrules are made from rifle shell casings and most are chemically aged. All done by me, from scratch.

 

Jelly. I want to do that. I could do the barrel by hand all day long but the other stuff idk about

 

Vote for me, and enter your truck (or dont, IDGAF)

Rubs like a mother fucker. But I haven't CMC yet and I haven't done the pinch weld yet. That's happening in a few. I'm running up to advance to get me some lug studs to hold me over until the ARPs come in

Gettin Wheel spacers?

 

My wiring skills are horrific. Could I perhaps convince one of you to assist me with this mod?
