My family is from mid Missouri, my dad is a logger and cattle farmer, hedge (osage) was a big part of my upbringing. So much so that the support beams for your 14 foot ceiling living room is squared hedge beams. It is also used as door trim on the outside door as well as the doorway to our living room. Sanding was a nightmare on all that btw.

I know an old man who used osage orange to make tongue and groove hardwood flooring for his kitchen back in the '80s.Talk about beautiful! His friend who operated the sawmill that cut the logs told me he conditioned the logs by letting them soak in a pond a couple years prior to sawing them. Rayburn ( the mill operator) said by doing so,the logs cut like white oak and saved a lot of wear on the blade. A hard wood to work with but well worth it.

You’ve probably already seen that it fairly quickly turns a beautiful toasty brown. We used a lot of hedge for fence posts on the ranch in the Oklahoma panhandle ‘No Man’s Land’ where the settlers planted them for tree rows in a largely treeless and arid land. They grew slow and hard. The drawback for use as posts is that as they cure they becomes so hard it is nearly impossible to drive in a fence steeple, resulting in a lot of cussing and bent steeples!

Also called 'horse apple' and 'bois de arc', or 'bodark'. Makes excellent bows for archery. 'Bois de arc' is French for bow wood. In parts of the US settled by French, think Louisiana Purchase, most now call it 'bodark'. Cut some small limbs and stick them in the ground...voila! you have a tree. Plant them close together in a line and you have an impenetrable hedge, forever. Get careless and the thorns and spikes will rip you a new one. The best bows and axe handles are started with a froe to split the wood along the grain.

I’m not a sawyer but here are some ideas I had when I saw your new table. For what it’s worth. First, the table should come with wheels so that you can roll it around if necessary. If you don’t move it, you can always take them off. Second, mount some kind of hard rubber matting on the table so that when you move wood across it, it takes the wear instead of the paint. Finally, since you throw water on the wood, could you somehow seal the steel parts that would get wet so that the table does not rust. I always enjoy your videos, and I’ve learned a lot from you. State safe. BTW, I live not too far from you ( about 4 hours) in Nelson County, Virginia.

Another name for them are Bois D' Arc, bowdark, bowwood, horse apple, and hedgeapple . Settlers used the wood to make chuck wagons, wheel hubs and wheels due it strength and resistance to cracking. Plenty of them in Texas and I have a few on my property of various sizes. The fruit/seedpod they drop is a pain and the size of grapefruit along with the thorns.

@motsekov 3 жыл бұрын

I grew up in Ohio and Osage Orange is also a very hot, long burning wood that was sometimes used for heating and such as well as for steam engines. It was also planted along property and boundary lines and it has this Green Fruit the size of grapefruit or oranges and that lead to the familiar name of "Hedge Apple"!! Just an interesting side note to the tree!! Oh, and when tossed at someone and it breaks, IT STINKS!! LOL.

Osage Orange. During the New Deal in FDR's era, the Conservation Corp planted Osage Orange on selected farms for a hedge-like fencing. My grandmother's farm, a neglected piece of Iowa Farm history, had a strip mine that covered about 40 acres. The northern border had an Osage Orange hedge-like fence. In the summer, Osage Orange have a sort of hedge balls about the size of softballs. These fall in later summer and will go to seed during the Spring. Thus, more Osage Orange which can become extremely unruly with twisted, thorny limbs. In 1984, I cut well over 400 nice size Osage Orange trees all by myself with only a chain saw (went through several blades). We used those for fence posts which will last hundreds of years ... supposedly. This tree has become rare in SE Iowa but the fence posts endure. It burns hot, really hot!

@datguy8371 3 жыл бұрын

We have "hedge rows" around the midwest. You see them along the sides of pastures, some of the trees still standing. Farmers used to plant osage orage (hedge) trees along the edge of fields, then tack wire to them once they got to be about 3 inches in diameter. Sawing through them can yield surprises sometimes, bad for your blade. This was mostly done back in the late 1700 to late 1800s. The trees that remain are typically up to 3' diameter. They would also trim off limbs and younger trees up to 3'-6' diameter that weren't growing where they wanted. Those would be placed in fence rows as posts, and still be there decades later. The wood will rot, but it takes a very long time, much longer than cedar. Drive through the countryside here in Illinois, and you can observe many remaining hedge rows bordering pastures and fields.

Osage is beautiful. Starts bright yellow and ages to the color of good whiskey. Might want to look into sawing if for bow blanks is you get any more. Harder than Woodpecker's Lips. An Osage post will outlast two postholes.

The table should be a very nice addition. They call them hedge apple trees up here. I remember as a kid my brother and I used to call their fruit “monkey brains”. If you ever smashed one you would understand. Is that cabbage with the really neat coloring above the nose? Thanks for the content as always. -Ben

Man, as soon as I saw the timber I knew it was Hedge or one of the many names it goes by across the country. Then you brought out the table and I thought " Woodmiser is finally making one?" and sure enough you sat it up. It has been 5 years now since I ran a mill and built one out of 2 x 4s and plywood. Makes off bearing easier, you are going to love it. Keep it up, friend!
