Osage Orange, also know as a hedge apple tree. Double the BTU of the next hottest burning wood. Settlers would quarter the apples, put them in buckets with water to break down over winter. Then take the mash and pour in a trench along property lines, growing a living fence line. Wasn't native to USA.
@@jasonhilliker492 Looks like that wood and those thorns are the same. The branches actually start growing as thorns, on Osage orange. But, could be a similar tree; I'm no arborist. 🙃
I believe this is also called Hawthorne and it does grow everywhere in the northern hemisphere, it's not got the same bark on it that Osage Orange has, I've turned both. or maybe it grows differently down south.
@@PohlBarnProductions Here in North Texas when you talk about Osage Orange you are talking about Bois d’ Arc (pronounced bodarc) tree. The fruit we call horse apples, or we did as kids. Also known as hedge apples. There are a number of homes of the late 19th century and early 20th century built here in DFW that were built upon piers made from bodarc trees. The wood is almost impervious to rot and is also used for fence posts. The OP is correct that bodarc trees were planted as wind breaks and hedge protection.
Douggggggg!!! I love it and I love the angles and the instructions! Thank you so so so much for having a premiere, I loved it, thank you yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
Turned out great. I like that new art resin look. My last one (all wood) took 6 coats of wipe on poly. Just kept soaking in. I've not heard of thorn apple but it looks good.
Amazing artist like you have inspired me to give this a go. I'm working on buying my first lathe now and have a bunch of beautiful maple logs drying out in my yard. Hopefully I can come even close to the talent that you have.
That's a pretty cool video animation for the Entry! We had one of those trees when I was growing up as a child, wicked, wicked thorns I never knew the name of it but it was nothing to trifle with! Those colors are perfect! I was not too sure about how the pewter would do, but it is another fantastic bowl...
Doug i absolutely love this bowl. I love the shape and the colour. I wish you wouldn't pull your work down. You are so good at what you do and most people enjoy your work.
Hi Doug! As usual, excellent work! You always say it's not perfect. Well, if I wanted perfect, I'd say watch machinery made stuff. The " imperfections "are what make it so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Hi to all the pomskies and the other critters!
Those colors really go with the natural color of the wood. For a tree that is such a pain - the wood it offers up sure does make for a fine turning blank.
Yup, it is an extra day, but it's worth waiting Doug. A very nice looking bowl and a nice video to watch, what can we ask more? Thank you for sharing my friend and have a nice work week. 👍👍👍
Doug, thanks for answering my question about the double pads. Sure wasn't expecting to see this on the vid but still cool. What a great piece of art for sure. You done SUPER yet again.
love how the colors came out, reminds me of a fancy marble countertop in some fancy mansion. the thorn apple is beautiful too, i’ve never heard of it before. those thorns look brutal!
Another great looking piece. The colors went perfect with the wood, great looking, even if it isn't perfect (your words). Thanks for sharing and taking the time to make the video. I can't wait to see what you do next. Have a good one 👍👍👍
Love those colors! I’d love to see copper, copper glitter with the pewter as well, I think that’d be beautiful combo too. Turned out gorgeous Doug! Did you like the art resin? Since I often work with molds, I mostly use art resins. Just curious if you noticed any difference. I used Stone coat’s art resin on a table top project and it was great. We didn’t have a single bubble on either table and I didn’t torch because I was hoping to avoid divots.. that actually worked well too, no divots either.😊 Great job! Thanks for another enjoyable video!
Great choices of resin additives, Doug. Very striking. Those thorns, though. As soon as you showed them I knew which trees you were talking about. Nasty. Well done dealing with the punky wood.
