I was thinking green Slate for the play surface of my Osage Orange turkey pot call but now I'm not sure, maybe Copper or half blasted Crystal.

Osage Orange wood, made a few of these in the past, always regretted not keeping one for myself. This will have green Slate play surface not sure what sound board I want but will definitely have a Osage Orange display stand and carved Morel striker. Shed antler striker display looks good.

Put the finish on the Walnut base. The carved Morel is removable, makes for a great display.

Natural color of the antler makes for a perfect small grey Morel mushroom.
