We can help you out. What exactly do you need help with?  Asking for help on making an open reed call is pretty vague. Are you needing help selecting a lathe, mandrels, turning, making toneboards, etc.

You won't get money rich in this hobby.  The richness is in the culture, the craft, the friends you meet along the way, and being able to call in a wary game animal with a call that you made with your own hands.

Like the other guys said if you give us some more info I am sure we can help you out.  Try to give us the details, like what materials you are using and how you are doing things.  As a general statement I would say spend the time to develop your own toneboard.  It will be more rewarding and you will learn a lot that will be helpful.   
In life or anything worth partaking, if you have stopped trying to improve you have quit.
