[jode hillman]

Thanks Guys, I am taking them to Westlake this weekend and Parkertown on the 26th if there still in my possesion........... Jode

 

[John Fraser]

VERY nice whistlers Jode. What kind of wood do you use when you make them eggshell thin?

 

[jode hillman]

Standard northern white cedar, very straight grained and clear. Though "eggshelled" might be a misnomer. They generally are 1/8" to 1/4" wall, with the thickest part where the rigging attaches. .

I think eggshell is pretty accurate for 1/8" thick. Are they usable or are they meant to be decorative?

 

[jode hillman]

Absolutley useable.........they don't need to be anywhere near that thin......but it's fun to do once in awhile to try out a new tool, or just for the heck of it.

 

[Rich Hohler]

Awesome work Jode. I hope to run into you at Westlake to see the GEs and turkeys in person. Here are four oversized Cans I just finished. Simple gunners of tan cork painted in oils.
