Here we have a Box Guitar Turkey caller, made from some Cherry out of a tree that was downed during a tornado in Southeastern Missouri a couple years back. The decorative ring is Claro walnut, the Tuning forks are Elephant Ivory, the upper decorative is the end of a Remington  UMC New Club 10 Gauge shotgun shell....I carved T-T on the guitar's head for "Turkey-Trot" .... The back of the guitar is slate from an old School house in Tennessee, it is 1/8" thick...the stand is made from a piece of Wormy American Chestnut, out of Virginia, The striker is in two pieces, one is the BONGO DRUM and the other piece is the MICROPHONE on a STAND, the BONGO DRUM has an Elephant Ivory top, the striker shaft is made from Cypress from Missouri and the drum and mike is American Black Walnut from my back yard. The guitar measures a little less then 8" in length and 3" at it widest part and 1" deep......yep it took some time to make it..............but you should have tried to tune it!!!!!!!!!!! ENJOY PAPPY

Unbelievable!!! I have a hard enough time making wood look nice when all I do is spin it around in a circle really fast. I don't know how you do it!
