Very nice....If I may ask..How much does a block of cork like that run? Have been intrested in trying my hand at carving.

Neil,

Made the Can out of Basswood, get it at the local saw mill, last time I was there spent $45. and have enough to make 6-7 decoys.

The cork you can buy in big sheets that cost around $75 I think thats for the 5" thick stuff.
Go to Theduckblind.com and talk to Willy, I think they sell a starter kit to.
Once you start carving it becomes VERY ADICTIVE and then all you want to do is make more decoys.
