Nice work my friend,i live in Brazil would il be possible tô provide The measurements on The drills length and diâmeter plus The cone ? Congrulations im top
Great video and process, thanks for sharing. Do you use any oil finish on your calls, or do you just leave them raw? Just thinking about the hunting environment which is pretty wet, would you give the call a soak in Linseed oil to give it some protection?
I believe I picked the the box from Hobby Lobby. Any cray store should have them. I use Fiskers scissors to make the dog ears and small trims to the reed

What tools are you using to press fit the band?
I use an arbor press from Harbor Freight. I leave the barrel about .005” oversized and press the band on then pin them with three pins.

I use velvit oil as a finish. I soak it for a few hours, let it dry for a day or two, then buff with Tripoli.
What is the small bit you use for pre drilling the insert hole?
Thanks
That’s a spot drill. It great for starting to drill

I didn’t. Those are made by Rockler

I use a custom jig made by Webfoot custom calls

It is a custom jig made by Webfoot. I made my own tone board and he mapped it to make a custom jig for me

No. I size everything by hand
