Title: Turpin on the brain,lol
Post by: Blackfalcon on March 11, 2011, 05:24:05 PM

It's been another week of fun and frustration in the shop. I am having some issues with the lathe after catching a tool in my chuck, it could have been worse but I ruined some expensive Ivory subsequently. While waiting for yet another Ivory shipment, I moved on down my project list and built a couple of Turpin calls. These are much smaller than most Turpins, and fit nicely into my Ol'Tom vest. I'm pleased with these little calls, I may make some minor changes, but at least I know they will tune in quite nicely. Thanks for looking, Dave
