I intent to use a fallen branch as musical instrument. The resistance to rot will certainly help since the branch must be fallen. The instrument I would like make is called a berimbau. It is usually made with a flexible hardwood native to brazil. Hopefully, the Osage orange will make a perfect substitute. <br /><br />DanielAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157832098620195163.post-35190508364297417772009-11-25T13:53:56.984-06:002009-11-25T13:53:56.984-06:00I love the shot of the fruit on the ground!

I bet they make great posts but I don't think they lasted the 100 years.<br /><br />I just love the trees. They are so unique. I love them in the woods though not in my yard.Yogi♪♪♪https://www.blogger.com/profile/00411274031147372579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157832098620195163.post-67930606535589517202009-11-24T14:40:37.811-06:002009-11-24T14:40:37.811-06:00Bonsoir.
