Title: Scrimshawed Scatchbox Done
Post by: Houlihan on September 08, 2013, 07:33:05 PM

This is that ebony and Holly, plus scrimshawed Ivory, scratchbox that I've been showing as I progressed.  It's done now.  The striker has a slate bottom, and man it sounds great with that Holly sound board. I really wanted to put some turkeys in the striker pic, but it was beyond my abilities to make them that small and still have them look like turkeys.

Thanks for the compliments guys.  I appreciate it.  I like to wore folks out posting pics of this dang call as I went.  But the punishment is over now.

That blue instrument is my scribe.  You can buy one identical to it from Sandra Brady (Google Sandra Brady scrimshaw) for under $20.  And it's awesome.  Then just go to making dots.
