Great video! Nice work, call clearly works and sounds great 🙏👍👍 I couldn't come close to making that If I tried. Got a simple one cheap from strut (raspy ole hen) works great didn't break the bank had it and many other options at sportsmans warehouse
Great video, beautiful call! Have you considered trying two different thicknesses on the sound boards or maybe routing three strips on one sound board and two on the other?
I have thought about playing around with thickness. It would be a fun experiment to try out different grooves to see how much of a difference it would make.
Terrific! I don’t understand though… Mine just sounds like two pieces of wood rubbing together… No turkey sound at all, what am I doing wrong? And also, what was that orange stuff you rubbed on it?
You can change the sound by putting more of a radius on the top of the sides where the lid makes contact. You only want a little surface area to make contact. The orange is chalk. You can use any old chalk but a brownish color just blends into the wood better. You only need it where it is making contact. Hope this helps.
I appreciate the history to go along with the call making.
Thanks. I never know if people enjoy that or find it annoying.
Nice unique little build. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎

@@jackgreenstalk777 the commercially made ones work great. The only reason I make them is just for fun.

Thanks for the information on making turkey calls they look great but couldn't see the degrees you set your blade to for end blocks for call

What kind of wood was used for the different parts?
I used purple heat for the striker. walnut and African mahogany for the sides. I’ve used cedar on others and that also works well
Could I get a cut list for this??
Ergh, makes my skin crawl.
Where do you live that has that many turkeys Lol. .. great video man
Thanks. I live in the four corners area on the NM side.
@@Makingitwild you wanna go turkey hunting next season?
Spoiler Alert:
If you need to ask for instructions, mebee you should just step away from the tools, and just pay the $25
