Post by: Freeze @ Cypress Bottom Game Calls on July 11, 2012, 12:50:22 PM
Here's a burnt osage-(http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r485/cypressbottomgamecalls/GEDC0194.jpg)
This one's walnut with antler shaving inlay-first try at that- alot of glue on my fingers!!-(http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r485/cypressbottomgamecalls/GEDC0195.jpg)(http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r485/cypressbottomgamecalls/GEDC0204.jpg)
This one's black locust shaped like an acorn with burnt cap, with John Hoods permission.(http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r485/cypressbottomgamecalls/GEDC0199.jpg)(http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r485/cypressbottomgamecalls/GEDC0203.jpg)

Those are amazing! Is the antler just a cut sliver out of an deer antler?

  :thanks: The inlays are drill shavings of antler glued in with CA.

Looks really nice.  I may have to take the idea of stippling the top of the acorn.

  :thanks: for letting me use your idea!! The stippling looks nice but there has to be a better way to do it- I used a rounded off punch and a hammer!!!
