Striperman, that last piece of wood, the creme de la creme, is that also box elder, the difference being the burl ? It looks fantastic and the calls came out great, nice finish.
 
Yes it is all burled elder, it's amazing. Its all from the same tree!! There were 8 pieces out of a 9' X 4' piece of tree that looked like that.
They almost look marbled. I do use a duplicator on the calls, that is NOT by hand, well I do turn the wheel!! and the finish is by hand, but the tolerance for the call components required accuracy I can't get free hand.
