This is no lie, these two hen boxes have been sitting since at least early 2011. I made them up after I made my first in Oct. 2010. I ran into some tuning issues with this design and decided to change things in the box and set these two aside till today. I also found some lids ready to go so it was time to tune. The calls are Poplar/ Burmese blackwood and Teak/ Burmese Blackwood with cedar/ sycamore chalk boxes. Still need to finish the lids then their ready to go. Thanx for the look.

Those look amazing!!!  Love the wood combo. Very nice work.  I acknowledge the fact that you were so cautious in having the proper time, material, and tuning involved.  A satisfactory job indeed.  Well done sir.

Thanx guys. As you can see I really don't make many of these and for these two the tuning issue was in my head not in the design. Though I do hate all the clean up around the turned handle when finishing these they do make a great hunting call.

I'm not the best with this sound file thing and would be happier doing this outside but here goes. https://soundcloud.com/callmakerman/teak-poplar-hen-boxesaudio
