Oh no !! Cracked wingbone

[jlewis4390]

Well I bought this beautiful wingbone off eBay 4-5 years ago and had never hunted it till today and it is pure Turkey .... my favorite call by far. Well I had it in truck for tomorrow's hunt and my wife came in house and says I have to tell you something I got in the truck to grab my sunglasses and I dropped your call I think it broke !!!! well it did break but still runs fine so I guess It gives me a excuse to find another one for sale

Sorry to hear that.  At least you can still use it tomorrow and until your replacement is found.  Good luck tomorrow!

Might be able to put a fuzz of CA glue on the crack and seal it up.

Thanks for the heads up I am trying to see if I can find the chipped piece that came out of the end but I will throw some glue on it

Might not be perfect, but with a little custom work you could fit another piece in there with a little CA or epoxy and it would suffice.

Does anyone know this maker by chance ??

I don't know who the maker is, but it's a cool looking call.

As other have said, even if you can't find the chip, I'd mix up a little 5 min. epoxy and apply it with a toothpick to the inside, anywhere it looks like it might crack more. You may want to "lightly" sand the rough edges of the area where it chipped.

Hey, it adds to the character of the call!!!

Ya I'm gonna look a little tomorrow when I get out of the woods... but either way I will pick up some 5 min and hit it with a little light sanding

Another way to fill that gap is with Superglue and Baking Soda. Put a drop of SG in the space and sprinkle BS on it while it is still wet. Do this over and over, gradually working it until the chipped area is filled. You can then sand it down flush with 220 grit (or finer) sandpaper. You might be able to match the feathered paint on the spot. Making it totally disappear may not be possible, but your restoration shows some of the history of the call.

Not too many people seem to know about this method.  We used to fix airplane propellers using superglue and baking soda.  I've flown a many of times on propellers with super glue repairs, I trust my life on them.
