sandblasted glass playing surface for pot calls

[Cool Ridge Clucker]

Have any of you used sandblasted glass for your pot call playing surface?  If so, did you use the blasted side up as the surface contacted by your striker, or did you put the glossy side up to keep the look of the blasted surface protected and so you could condition the glossy side the way you wanted it for playing.  Just curios.

Also, have any of you noticed any kind of difference in your pot call tone depending on what type of glue you used to fasten your sound board and playing surface to your call?

Thanks.

The general consensus seems to be to use e600 or shoo goop for gluing surfaces down, I've also used tacky glue from hobby lobby seems to work well. I think the e600 is best because it's a permanent, waterproof bond, but I think how thick it is and that it dries pretty rubbery to insulate the surfaces from each other.

Remember these things are all about vibration, and I think any solid bond like ca, epoxy or wood glue would mess with the vibrations too much. Plus if the wood isn't stabilized it will expand and contract, so you want that rubbery layer to allow that to happen or something might break if the expansion is too much

That stuff is a PITA to apply, but I just made a post about a way I just found to make it a lot easier and neater

Just what Weathered-branch said , the glue you use can get a different sound ..meaning vibration. Tone
