Title: Lathe questions
Post by: CMBOSTC on December 25, 2011, 09:40:50 PM
Hey guys,

I need the help of my fellow call makers. I just got a lathe for Christmas (YEAH me)! The problem is I know very little about lathes. What kind of chucks and other widgets do I need in order to turn strikers and do some hollowing out the insides of a slate call along the lines of an E.L. Wisor slate and trumpet calls? If any one has any links to demonstrate what I am asking about I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks, Chris

Gitzit69,

That's exactly what I was looking for... thanks! Are there any links out there that demonstrate how to make trumpets. I'm particularly interested in the hollowing process.
