[Woodcarver] Need help - bullroarer

[Mike and Patty]

I tried 3 different ones last nite & ended up with  a danddy sounding one
the only weight I use was the wood its self
1/4" thick
12" long
2"wide
rounded the end a bit and the sides drilled the hole about an inch in for 
the string and it sounds great.
I use black walnut but any heavy wood will wook
I hope this helps
I also saw this can be made all kinds of sizes.
Mike
