the screens too small for a pic of my butt if thats what you wanted, lol. I made em in a hurry, not to look good but be functional. light 220 grit sanding, 1 coat of minwax english chestnut stain/sealer on both inside and out, liquid nails for both pieces of glass/slate, let sit overnight, then the engraving with a dremmel orange paint for my initials and an asterisk and a black sharpie for "NACHO" they look made by a 3rd grader compared to Fl quackers but sound great. pm me your e-mail and I can send a few pics of the calls from my phone.

completed both my pot calls in 1 night, then engraved initials and filled them with orange paint, so I won't lose it. I was wondering about those camo scenes or pics under the surface. they don't interfere with the sound? I was thinking about putting a pic of my butt in there, so if anyone stole the call they would have to look at and scratch my butt to use it. that should deter theft 100%. still waiting on my box call from TOBY. I ordered the pot kits 4 days after his and rec'd them thurs.

pic please would like to see

Don't be shy...lets see em 🙂

I went with the frosted glass & it sounds good, better grip on the surface maybe. I didn't care for plain glass or aluminum as it's easy to get a sour note. I still want to try ceramic but havent found it at that kit place. STILL waiting on the TOBY BENOIT call, if I had known shipping was gonna take so long, I'd have driven there.
