Trying something a little different...wood burning a soundboard.  African blackwood box with dogwood soundboard.  This time I did more shading than wood burning.

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

When searching through some old boxes of stuff, I found the first scratch box I ever made. It was dated March 16, 1989, and it was made from eastern aromatic red cedar. For my first effort, I don't think I did too bad of a job with it. It doesn't sound too bad...I think I could call up a turkey with it...LOL!!! I've been practicing my wood burning, so I decided to give my first scratch box an upgrade....

Thank you all for the compliments. As always I'm trying to improve my work...the wood burning being the area I've felt could use the most improvement. Since practice is the best way I know to facilitate improvement, I thought practicing on my scratch box strikers would work best since they are small pieces and if I mess up...oh, well. Anyway, people seem to like the striker upgrade....

Cherry burl is one of my favorite woods to work...even with the holes, cracks and voids you sometimes have to fill.  The character of cherry burl makes the effort worthwhile, and the finished product can be enjoyed even if it is just a scratchbox. This cherry burl was home grown and waiting for it to dry has been difficult.  But it's dry now....
