How to make your own calls??

[jake smith09]

Does anyone out there know how to make your own howlers or more preferably distress calls? Also im wanting to get a small lathe to make some calls and such and i was wondering about how much a good small lathe would cost and all the equipment i would need to get with one. thanks

You should be able to get a small bench top lathe that would do anything up to 16" and get tools for under $500. Sears might carry one, I know delta has a small on that is pretty good.
