I have some Osage orange but it has been dried for probably 12 years or more at this point I would think it is like turning a paving stone.

Bois d'arc was used for street cobbles in many East Texas and Louisiana towns. My Wife's grandfather was very proud of a fence line that His Grandfather stretched when he got home from the Civil War they were the original bois d'arc posts and stretchers.

One of my biggest fears is that my widow will sell all my toys based on what I told her I paid for them.

Trade?
