Re: Trouble with small pallet using mouth calls?
Great job Del. I too am “blessed” with a narrow pallet and have trouble finding calls that I like or that sound good.
Re: Trouble with small pallet using mouth calls?
Good tips. I have a narrow and tall pallet and have always struggled with diaphragms
Re: Trouble with small pallet using mouth calls?
Hope some of these tips help
Re: Trouble with small pallet using mouth calls?
Best advise you gave was that it is OK to have the call sit catywabus in your mouth. That is spot on. Thanks for sharing.

Houndstooth calls used to make narrow frame calls but when I tried ordering a few last year Lyle had stopped but said he’d be making more.
Re: Trouble with small pallet using mouth calls?
I have. A new press and tape cutter is about $2000. Got to sell a PILE of calls at my price to get it. I have another option for about $400. Saving up to go that route. Its a youth frame jig. Just waiting to see if Im getting a tax return or owe money first.
There are about 6 different frames. Each one requires a different jig and tape cutter. Thats why most guys only do one size.

Think of that $2,000 setup as a business expense that will be a write off for 2020 since you already know the amortization will never show a return or profit.savduck wrote: ↑February 4th, 2020, 9:43 pm I have.

Do you already have a Gofund me account set up for this new jig? You know, it’s all in the name of helping us children of God that have been touched with a unique and challenging pallet shape.
I’m in for a donation. If you know 9 others that share our condition and affliction then we can easily afford to get you that $400 press next week.

I got the money. Just waiting until taxes are done for the year to see if Ill have to pay. Trump got a man making real money in his main job. If I get by, Im buying it.
