That's looking pretty spectacular. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

 8)  Whoa my!  I'm concerned when you get done with it that we won't be able to see how sweet it actually IS from the pictures.  You may have to send a future one my way for inspection.   ;D

Pretty slock looking caller there.   What did you pay for the acrylic to do that?   And where did you find a piece that big?

I got the acrylic at delvies plastic.The cost was not to bad.The pot call sounds good with a wood stricker,but my problem is, I am trying to make a clear acrylic stricker to match the pot call. And with acrylic being denser then wood it made the call sound flat.So I drilled the head of the stricker out,which in turn gave me a higher pitch.I got it done just need to get it polished up.After I get it polished and read your tutorial on sound files, I will post a picture and a sound file.
