Title: Ipe and Antler
Post by: woodwzrd on May 29, 2012, 11:54:22 PM

I just finished up another run of tubes and this one is headed to the classifieds. I started this call back in Jan. as a competition tube but just was not pleased with the direction it was going. I pulled it out of the drawer the other day and looked at it with a fresh eye and it is done and I am now pleased with it. The white on the call is a whitetail antler drill shavings inlay. Thanks for the look.

Very Nice, I just recieved some Ipe and am about to turn it........is that a CA finish on that tube or is a traditional poly finish?

Thanks for the comments guys.

ccleroy, it is a CA finish. Just a warning about the Ipe, it is pretty oily and it won't really start to look good till you get it sanded out to 320 and up
