Thanks for the kind remarks fellas. It was good Osage, Matt. It had dark red streaks in the grain. I think  twisted limbs commented one time about the coloring of Osage. How old was that stuff, blackhawk? It was one of the staves we got in Ohio. I want to say it was cut in the late 80's.

I still got one big stave that probably has two stiffys and two bendys in it. It's propped and one end is reflexed but nothing heat can't fix. Nice rings though
