Title: Not a turkey call but my girlfriend sure loves 'em
Post by: merocustomcalls on August 16, 2011, 12:31:03 AM
Here's a selection of bracelets that I've made for my girlfriend over the past several months.  Clockwise from top left: Tulipwood, Osage Orange, Padauk, Kingwood, Maple on the bottom. 

Guys maybe your wife/girlfriend gets on your case for spending too much time in the shop.  Try making her a bracelet, you'd be amazed at her reaction.  I'm so fortunate to have a girlfriend that loves to turkey hunt and loves the fact that I make custom calls.  Her eyes light up every time I give her a new bracelet.  They are easy to turn on a lathe.  What a great way to show her that you care for her.  If you use enough woods then you will always have something that goes with her outfit.  My girlfriends bracelets get noticed all the time and girls get really jealous when they find out where they came from.  Of course my girlfriend has a full selection of calls that I made for her but girls love the bling too.
