Thanks everyone. The snake is a change of pace. Hardness is up there around 86 i think. Here's a better look.
The bansaw needs a new blade. I'd like to find a blade a bit thicker to keep from twisting if that's doable.

I ended up getting 9 calls out of the log of snakewood. Found out that 4 pedestals makes a better sound with extremely hard wood, a full circle pedestal makes a better sound then post pedestals on softer wood. So I'm picking up on some of the finer nuances with this turkey call making.
These are the calls have turned in the last 2 weeks
