Here are 4 trumpets I am finishing up this weekend-- 2 Snakewood, Osage, Desert Ironwood......Not sure why the pics are so big, I resized as usual, but they just are not behaving.

Those are some very trumpets. The snake wood looks excellent!
I like the eye in the Osage one!

Very sharp horns especially the second snakewood from the left!

I like the "eye" too, it took some very special care turning to keep it in one piece, but it worked!!

The eye sets it off, worth the extra effort for a sharp looking trumpet
4 lookers!! I'm sure they all sound great too.
I can guarantee his calls to call gobblers ... Those are really nice ...

Thanks, finding the lighter background colored snakewood blanks is the hardest, they do show great contrast with the figure, which I like as well.
great looking set of calls

Thanks Greg, appreciate that very much!
Very nice! I struck three gobblers this morning with the trumpet I just got from you. One of them came from a long distance but hung up about 85-100 yards and wouldn't come the rest of the way. It is multiple gobblers approved!

Nice, thanks for sharing that experience, the Delrin is speaking their language.
Quote from: Alabama556 on April 22, 2024, 01:25:24 PMGreg built the Osage call for me. I love the knot. The call was made from a fence post that came off my farm in Alabama. Can't wait to use it this weekend.
Thanks Greg.

My pleasure, it was a fun project. The wood was very dense/heavy and made a great sounding trumpet.
