Recycled Scratch box call...pappy
« on: October 04, 2012, 10:23:06 AM »


Digging around my shop the other day and found a piece of an old Sears Hand Mitre Saw the wood was some super birdseye maple so I cut it up into piece to be used for scratch boxes, this is the first one, with a quartersawn cherry soundboard. The striker is also cherry. Call has super great sound and volume. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY AT THE TOP CORNER PICS YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE SCREW HOLE USED TO MOUNT ONE OF THE RUBBER FEET ON THE BASE .....HOW COOL IS THAT? PAPPY

noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

When you play it does it do a Sears commercial?   Nice job Jack.  My favorite wood---found.
