Osage haul
« on: May 10, 2012, 09:17:39 pm »
This is the best osage tree i ever found. Got two logs from the main trunk a 73incher and a 66incher. Almost zero twist. Had to quarter them to load. Round piece is from tree next to it.

Nice haul.  Make sure to seal the ends and spray them with bug spray.

Nice ring thickness.  I don't think I've found any like that.  My back hurts just looking at it.

Those are the thickest rings i ever found around here. I sealed the ends with glue before i even loaded onto the truck.

That should keep you busy for a week or two  >:D Is that a homelite chainsaw, I had an older one about 5 years ago that I got in the back of a blazer I bought for $50.

Wonder if that wood grows anywhere by me, I'd love to find some.  ???

You don't know if osage grow round you? I believe from ohio, kentucky, to Oklahoma, to texas, and I believe even in remote places in california it grows. Where do you live?

      Years ago I was running my dogs in Ca on some abondoned ranch land and found a bunch oof hedge apples. Had no idea what they were. I brought some home just because they were strange. Now the place is built up with homes.
