Tulipwood Pot Pictures Please

[Sir-diealot]

Tossing around several kinds of calls to get in January for myself for my birthday and one of the two major interests is a 3 1/2" Tulipwood pot, though I am not sure of surface or sound board yet . If any of you have a tulipwood pot I would like it if you would post a picture of it here and if any of you have advise on tone board and striking surface I would like to hear that and why.

The other big pot is the green over red I posted about last week or the week before. Thanks. Oh if anybody knows roughly how pricey they are (tulipwood pots) I would like to hear that as well.

Brazilian tulipwood?
You will have a hard time finding any material that will make more than a striker or scales for a handgun or knife if so.

That is my thought, yes. I have a striker I love the looks of and have been looking online at furniture made of it.

It's a CITES Appendix II wood so it has import restrictions.

That figures, of all the exotic woods I have seen the one I like the most can't be purchased.

How big would a blank have to be to make a pot that size?

I have two pot calls 
It's very hard to get it to , in size
Very hard

I would like to see them anyway please.

Would it be better to get in trumpet making size or are they about the same?

4×4×1 and its next to impossible to find tulipwood boards wider than 2.5-3", and if you did find a 4" wide board you're talking a good chunk of change.

I look at and buy quite a bit of tulipwood at my wood store for strikers and I've never ran across a board wider than 3".

That's depressing to hear. Thanks though.

If you search online I'm sure you could find a board, I've seen it 4" before online. But it is expensive. I can honestly say that you'll probably have to buy it yourself and send it to the maker if you want a tulipwood pot. I've wanted one for a while, but it's just too much money, maybe one of these days.

My most recent one was $100  really NICE call @ figure
Almost don't want to take it hunting 
I put it away and then my wife moves things around  and then I have to really look for it
I have more calls than  I can ever hunt with
Just a very bad at but legal habit

No call making experience but I've seen laminated pots. Maybe you could find a piece to go with another type wood.
