Osage Orange I split for heating wood and a few turkey














Marky! (and Ruth of course!) these rounds of osage orange are mostly 36" to 42" in diameter and 24" to 28" tall. When I stick an "oh-no" bar in the center and get on top..its all I can do to flip them on their side. Getting them into the splitter is another story!! Echo is there for size comparison and of course to make sure nothing sneaks out and attacks me. She does a fine job I haven't seen any elephants since she went on duty lol. The turkey pictures I took out my computer room window which faces my back yard.
