Try to make a tube call. You should be able to find this a web site. I know all you need is a film container and some latex a long with some rubber bands.

Like elnor is saying, the tube call would be the easiest call to make & the nwtf website will give you step by step instructions to do it. BUT...I believe you may want to stick with your first choice of a slate call. I know it will be more dificult to build, but will be easier to play when complete. The tube call has to be one of the most difficult calls to master. My point...why build it if you can't use it...it make affect your grade. Just my 2 cents.

not tryin to hijack this thread or nothin, but since we're on the subject of makin slate calls has anyone ever made a striker out of a deer antler? anybody think it'll work or not work? i'm thinkin of makin some slate calls for myself and some friends over the summer and had the idea of makin the strikers out of deer antlers that i could get at fleamarkets & such. any info is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance and God bless.

Is that the length of your "Presentation" of the How-To... or the length of time it takes for you to make the call?

Your best bet would be to use the antler for the striker top and drill it for a hardwood dowel of some variety. I belive you'll get better performance this way than by playing the call directly with the antler. ;) This should be pretty easy to do.
