Default RE: Custom Made Box

I've been building boxes for the last few years. Sold a few, but mostly just made a hobby out of it. I started making them in a quest to find that "perfect" call. After building a couple hundred calls, I figured out that that perfect call doesn't exist, but it sure is fun comming close.

Here are a few of the woods that I use:

Walnut and poplar


Cherry and poplar


Spanish Cedar


and Mahogany


I get my hands on an odd wood every now and then and try it out. Never know how it'll turn out until I build one from it. I have a little magnolia right now and some pecan, and I've got some spalted pecan drying, but it won't be ready to work until NEXT year!
