Nothing special. The bushing kit is pretty important though. Has some compression foam that holds everything in place. Pretty cool how it works. Just follow the instructions and you'll be fine. Of course that assumes that you will actually read the instructions Grin

. My experience was that if I did what they said, they actually worked. Go figure. 8)

I've made 40 or 50 duck calls.

Here are some pics...

Using the kit from Craft Supplies or Hut Products they're pretty easy, much like pens. You can get all kinds of reeds. The single and double metal reeds are by far the best duck calls. The goose call reeds are a little weird and harder to blow. You can get deer, predator, etc. If you use some real nice wood like exotic stuff they really turn out nice. Dymondwood also makes a good looking call.

Never miss a good chance to shut up.
