Title: Mini Turpin style caller
Post by: firedup on February 23, 2013, 08:48:33 PM

This was a project I have been wanting to do for a while. Haven't made one of these in a few years.  A mini turpin style boxcall.  Walnut body with a birdseye lid. The grain in this lid is outstanding.  As you mite expect from a walnut and hard maple call, it is high on the front end and has some crazy raspy stuff on the back. Especially on the rite. I want to thank Mr. E for his valuable input. A helping hand ( or word  ;)) is always welcome in my shop friend! Put her in with an Eddleman box and an old True Tone for scale. Heard a rumor that another callmaker was working along these same lines too...

Sweet looking caller. I've made a few smaller Turpins myself and really like the sound that comes from the smaller call and it's easier to carry in the vest.

Was wondering when you were going to post that call up LT.  Great job my friend.  I'll have to plan a trip to WV to hear it in those WV woods. *up* *up* *up*

Must have missed this one, sweet one LT and you sure picked a nice slice of birdseye.  Did ya get that nasty growl on the bottom that Mr E gets?  Would love to hear that one.
