Awesome build, thanks. I dont have a lathe but I can chuck a block to my drill press to make a redneck lathe. Does it matter if you shape the outside before or after you drill your center holes, as far as the wood holding together on you?

Sleek, I suppose you could shape first. I drill first simply because its easier to do on the lathe. You may run into it breaking if you drill after. Also, if you drill after, and you want to thin it out more, that would be very difficult to do.

Also, you could drill a hole in just about anything  and make a call out of it. No lathe needed. ;)
