Title: Proph
Post by: turkeykiller22 on April 09, 2012, 02:34:55 PM
Hey guy im new into the building calls, and was needing a little help. How do you get the proph to bind together when building a call? I have been trying to figure this out and I can not for some reason. Thanks for your help!

You can usually get it to bind to latex but it's hard to get it to bind to another prof. Something like a nail. It has to be pointed but not real real sharp. Good luck,

Get you a hard surface hard as you can get to lay the proph on that's the biggest key to it a corian cut out works good in a dark color those reeds of proph are hard to see I have a copper pot call I built that sounded horrible so I take it with me and use it to stack and bind my reeds on. Proph is a hard material to build with it slows process down but you get a way better than avg. call!

I use a block of Aluminum to stack it on and then tack it with a sharpened nail set.

I use a straight tipped wax carver. Works great on a hard surface.
