Had a pretty cool design idea

[CMBOSTC]

Green slate/slate in a cedar pot. This one will be going in my vest for sure. She's not finished to the degree that I would normally finish a call as she is a prototype. There's no doubt that I'll be making more. There's a spot on the back of the pot that looks like I took a hammer to the call, it's a discoloration that looks weird in the photo.

That's different for you. Why the shape change? Just something new or intended purpose? Looks good either way

Vince Vector has been using that design since 2002 an the cedar come from his uncle an grandfather that milled it. The design that u are using isn't nothing new. It would be a gentlemen's way it stop using it IMO.

I don't think we can say the octagon shape can't ever be used again,,then we could say you can't use the round  shape any more or you can't checker a box call because Neil Cost first did it.

Not saying that at all but there are to many similarities between the 2calls. The ring an pen are 2 things that stick out to me.

Ronnie Clough (Close Calls) has been using this style for a long time too...

Wow, I didn't expect all of this to be waiting for me when I woke up. I appreciate the heads up about Vector Calls and I will contact Vince myself to let him know that my idea came from me and not just me copying his call. I can honestly say that I was unaware that anyone used this shape. I do agree though, that the octagon shape can and should be used just as the circle, and other shapes that are used.

TJ, I'll put you down.

I guess I just had and idea that popped into my head and I went with it. One thing that I noticed that I really like is the fact that you can grip the call well.
