Picked this up the other day. Seemed like a cool project. Thinking an informal broom type.
1. I do need a little advice on how to carve this and whether to shorten the first main branch. The side where the main branch jets out to the right is my preferred front as the base and nebari are better on that side. I’ll have to live with a large scar, just wondering how to carv so it looks more on the natural side.
2. Something I didn’t take into account was that there are no live horizontal nodes until the end of that first main branch, curious if I should leave it that length or cut it back to one of the vertical nodes and try to work it that way. There is one dormant horizontal bud it looks like that I circled. Thanks
