Turkey pot call making. With Tony Dempsey S.T.D Turkey Calls  

Straighttalkindirty@gmail.com send me an email with your questions

No problem.. it's truly a passion both hunting and making pot calls .. nothing like hearing the bird gobbling with something you make yourself.. Are you going to turn calls or are you just putting together pots already made

@Tony Dempsey gonna try everything myself,,,been turning a few years but never a call of any kind b4

If you get stuck on anything.. don't be afraid to ask. I'll do my best to help out

No problem... when I first started out there wasn't real good video's on here.. I struggled.. just remember take lots of notes and change 1 spec at a time.. Get your spacing between the striking surface and soundboard right.. get the sound chamber right (from the striking surface to bottom of the inside of call and outside diameter of pedestal) and your pedestal diameter good.. those are the most important and keep sound holes away from the outside wall at the least 1/4 away.. Last but not least let the glue dry before you try.. 24hrs min

Thanks.. I'll be doing another video similar to this.. here soon but it will be a little more informative on the inside of the call itself

​@@tonydempsey1359Pretty much the same as I have been doing. I would really like to get in touch with you.

I started out with a small Cole chuck jaws from nova.. then have 3 different chucks dedicated to hold for different steps when I make them

A lot of ways to skin the cat.. I use 3 different chucks now.. seems like alot but I like my process..

Sure.. you can check Bell Forest. Com Ebay also searches on the web turkey pot call blanks You want at the least thickness of 15/16 anything under that is not good.. as a pot call is usually around 13/16 to 7/8 thickness I like mine to be around 1in thick but not necessary Stick with 1 wood type till you have that wood figured out (the sound you want) remember to take lots of notes and make 1 change at a time.. You can also buy wood by the board foot and usually get about 6-9 calls out of it.. and cheaper I'm here to help as much as I can

nice video. i didn't see you glue in a sound board under the main surface. do you glue one in the call on that pedistal?

Rikon is a 70-105 And I use a nova chuck have 3 of them and 1 barracuda chuck All chucks are setup to hold my pots different ways.. it's not necessary but makes life easier..
