Once I got in there to take a look I found that there was a lot to remove. This is a soft wood so I tried to be careful and not expose the bare wood as much as possible. However these cuts were big so I had little choice.

This is the “after” picture that shows the carving done to give the trunk a much smoother look. A grinding tool with a chainsaw type blade was used to do the carving.


After the carving the tree was root pruned and placed into a training pot. This pot gets used so often, and I think It only cost $2. The tree now has great taper and the start of a first branch. Feb 2004.

The tree has extremely interesting deadwood. One coat of lime sulfur had been applied by this point.
