Custom Turkey Call Box

If you are like me and enjoy being a DIY’er in as many things as you possibly can, why not add building a DIY turkey box to your wild turkey hunting tools.

 I have put together a plan for you to download and videoed me building the box in my messy but productive workshop.

I have printed it at a 1/2″ = 1″ scale if you printed it on a 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheet of paper.  This way you can scale any dimensions you have additional questions about.

The materials you will need are:
Top Paddle: 3/8″ Thick X 2 1/2″ Wide X 10″ Long
Bottom: 3/8″ Thick X 2 1/8″ Wide X 8″ Long
Sides: (2) 1/4″ Thick X 2 1/2″ Wide X 8″ Long
Center Blocks: (2) 1 7/8″ Wide X 2″ x 1 1/2″
The one in the video is white oak but many types of hardwood will work.

Other Items Needed:
(1) 2 1/2″ Wood Screw
(1) Small Spring
(1) Piece of Chalk
Wood Glue

For the video, it is 30 minutes long but I try to be descriptive in the build.  Feel free to fast forward as the video because it was completely unscripted.

This custom box was modeled after a 1957 Lynches Champion Turkey Call Box with changes that you will see in the video.  I hope you enjoy it.
