A Couple Blasted Aluminums
« on: May 14, 2018, 07:44:24 AM »
I love a good blasted anodized aluminum call. They are very versatile in that you can call soft and loud on them.

Here’s a couple white oak and one cherry. I still need to do a little cleaning and sign the pots. I love white oak as the mountains I hunt are full of it. These white oak blanks have a killer look to them.

The white oak has a soulful yelp with good volume. The cherry has more volume and rasp. Both have the high-pitch, two-tone yelp that drive the mountain birds I hunt crazy.

Shown here with a bloodwood and dymondwood striker.

Thanks for looking!

Love that white oak, great grain. I'm partial to cherry as well though.

Thanks! I just turned a small batch of white oak and plan on trying an aluminum soundboard on at least one.
