Title: Maple Burl hen box
Post by: strutnrut on January 22, 2013, 05:26:09 AM
Here is a hen box I built out of a Maple Burl that I have had for many years. I added a Snakewood Lid. More than likely will hunt with this one in a couple months.

The heck of it is that piece of wood has been hiding in the old shop for about 10 years. It was a 12x12 Burl block an I only got one call blank that require alot of work. I had to move it to get to something else. I think it just knew a call was in there I just had to find it. An to think I was disappointed when it came in the mail.

If you've never played one, you owe it to yourself to do so.
