Carved and Painted Cherry Crow call...
« on: June 20, 2013, 07:43:22 PM »
Here's a look at a Cherry/Curly Maple crow call I just finished up.  Gave it a test drive out back, and had the local crows all fired up. 






Thanks for looking!

Man you do some really good carving. I've tried this and the outcome was not very good. What kind of carver do you use and bits if you don't mind me askin?

Mac,

I use a SCM air powered engraver.  As for bits?  I use a No.27 tapered or a No.16 , a No.18 pointed, and a carbide ball bit No. 10 I believe.  Pretty much the same bits and tools I posted in the carving tutorial in the Predator call section.
