This is where I buy mine.  Plus I would rather support a forum member buy purchasing from here.  I was kind of frugal when I first started off.  Now I buy huge quantities.  I buy hundreds of rubberized cork, hundreds of orings and I buy mylar reed material by the the package (8inch by 12 inch sheets) and there is 12 sheets to a package for $7.50.  I used to go slow on cutting doen a reed.  If I cut too much I don't even think about how to save it, it gets thrown out.  I have a small plastic set of drawers on the workbench.  Orings in one drawer, pre-cut reeds in another, corks in one and bands in another.  So when I am finishing a call it is top drawer for a band, next drawer an oring, next a reed and final a cork.  I usually do a production run of 10 calls when I make my "Old Dad" series.  Meaning I cut 10 barrels, 10 inserts, bore 10 barrels, finish 10 barrels ect all the way through the process util I have a completed 10 calls.  If I were to add just 10 seconds to each of those steps, time will add up and eat away at my profit margin.  So everything in my shop is designed to make sure I don't add minutes.

I didn't know those Orings were sold on here. I will be buying them from here also in the future to support a great site that has taught me a huge amount in making calls.

Without a doubt this is a great place for duck call information.  There is certainly a bunch if heavy hitters on here.  Another thing is like to point out is even knowing they are heavy hitters in the duck call world, very few will tell that to you.  Very bright, talented artist with modest characteristics.  They are a great group of men.  Btw, thank you men for coaching me along.
