Title: Walnut Burl
Post by: Rick Howard on March 23, 2016, 10:22:13 AM
I burnt the midnight oil finishing this call last night.  Glass over slate.  Walnut burl and purple heart for the striker.

Thank you Sir.  It took some figuring to get this thing turned out.  But I cut some waste away and got to the good stuff.

Thank you.

Here is the business end of this pot.  I paint my glass black or tan when using it for a sound board.  I will try to find a photo of that or take one on the next call I make if you would like.
