My very first osage hoard!
« on: July 07, 2011, 10:30:26 pm »
First of all I want to say thanks to ALL my enablers that kept me in yellow wood until now, I appreciate that very much! I finally have my own stash of osage. It was a long train running, but worth the wait. Here is what I got from four logs. The longest are 8' and the shorter billets/staves are 4' - 5' long.  ;D

That should keep you going for a while. I didnt osage grew up in your part of the country. Glad you found some though.

You got yourself a nice batch of Osage there. Don't forget to spray them down with some insecticide a couple of times this summer. Dean

Hey okie it didnt come from Michigan, it came from southern Indiana.  A friend skidded them up and I sent a work truck down to grab them. He has plenty more when Im ready. It sounds crazy, but it took alot of pressure off me. I dont need to barder, trade or buy any for a while now.

Hey Pearl
If that work truck is coming up I69 then you may want to have them kick a few pieces off on the north side of fortwayne as a little insurance against hijackers !! LOL
I could use some pressure taken off myself !!

Osage pirates are coming out of the wood work along the Indiana coast line! Everybody run!
