I think Chad (AmericanStrutter) is the only team mate that makes them for sale .
I have two of his and they are sweet.

I made the statement the other day and I'll say it again. I've never owned a custom call (other than a tube, one slate call and a halloran crystal mistress) until a couple weeks ago. Thought the prices were ridiculous. Now, with the loss of my box call and a few online deals, I've broken stride and will have replaced everything in my vest by season opener. Realizing how much better they sound is amazing.

Me 2 I've never been a custom caller even when I did contests but now it's got me wanting to make mouth calls! Wonder how much it would cost to get into it?

Chris, Jim (gobblenut) can set you up with a kit to make your own mouth calls.

I build mouth calls and although I don't actively try to sell them, I will make calls for someone that wants to try them out. 

As Anthony said, I also put together a kit for those interested in learning how to make mouth calls.  It has all the materials needed (and tools, too, in the full kit) for making 20 to 24 calls, plus a DVD that explains how to easily make the calls,...and it requires no expensive press or jig.

I have an add in the classified's if anybody is interested in making their own calls.  It might be down the list somewhere,....I don't often move it to the top.  If you buy very many mouth calls, you can save a fortune learning this method after the initial investment.

I recommend getting a double order of latex. By the time I got half way decent at it I was out of rubbers....Maybe thats how I ended up with two kids.  (Sorry I couldn't help myself)

Lol, me too. Difference is, I wasn't making turkey calls. Maybe I should have. Could've maybe made some money on the side and offset the daycare costs.
