Stabilized Wood

L&M Predator calls is pleased to feature Stabilized Wood in their newest calls.

Stabilized wood is either a hard or soft wood impregnated with acrylic resin. To stabilize wood, it is placed in a pressure chamber with clear acrylic resin. The resin is pushed all the way through the wood. The wood is then placed into an oven to harden the acrylic.

Stabilized wood has all the beauty and sound of the wood used. It also also has all the quality of acrylic. Stabilized wood is waterproof so it won't swell in cold weather and won't dry out in hot weather. It makes soft woods, like Redwood Burl, hard enough to work with and allow's for it to take the abuse of everyday hard hunting.

L&M now features these stabilized woods:

Redwood Burl: Typically a soft wood, stabilized Redwood Burl is a beautiful Burl wood. (click here to see an example)

Box Elder Burl: Very unique burl. This wood sometimes comes with Black Spalt but occasionally we get some Rose Spalt. (click here to see an example)

Buckeye Burl: A mix of tan & gray in color. Every piece of Buckeye is different with occasional Black Spalt. (click here to see an example)

English Walnut: we get some great looking pieces of this hard wood. (click here to see an example)

Carolina Cherry Burl: Darker then Box Elder Burl, this wood is found to be a reddish color. It's hard to find a good solid piece for calls, but it's worth all the hard work when we do find one. This wood makes beautiful calls. (click here to see an example)

Spalted Tamarind: A unique wood full of black spalt traditionally harder than Spalted Maple, giving a better call quality. (click here to see an example)

Carob: A beautiful unique wood with tones of red, brown, tan & black that we can only get in limited quality. (click here to see an example)
