Good photography makes such a huge difference. Beautiful...beyond beautiful.
Have the edges been worked to be translucent? Polished or what have you. Earlier photos seemed to show a distinct contrast....the edges looked opaque.....or something like that.
Really swank!! But myself, I like a classic table.
Is that a wood prop underneath the slab?
Honestly, it could be on a picnic table propped up on paper plates and it would still look fab!!! Pass the sauerkraut!!!
Best of show is always a nice addition to your palmares!!!

What kind of azalea did you use in the planting and where did you find it?
Can you really do that - wait?Next spring I anticipate doing quite a bit of wiring on it.
Looking good Serg! Beech are so much fun to wire, very compliant and the buds naturally lay out well. But if the wire even thinks about biting in a little, the scars won’t heal in our lifetimes.
Not exactly. I mean wouldn't you/it be better off if you did much of that wiring soon, rather than waiting until next spring? If you can already see that it needs a major wiring next spring, it seems like those things are only going to get worse with the remainder of this season and could potentially not be addressable next spring (but maybe take even more time to address). I am just asking, about the merits of 'an ounce of prevention versus a pound of cure'. You've only indicated concerns about the interior of the grouping. I'm maybe erroneously assuming this is what is driving the need for lots of wiring.Oso do you mean patience?

Maybe I should just rephrase my question to, "what are you going to address with 'quite a bit of wiring' next spring and why are you sure it can wait until then?"
I guess I'm unintentionally being nosy. I just want to know about things that maybe give me some insight into advancing my enjoyment of this inane hobby. Nothin' deep or personal.
wonderful forest, congratulation for your amazing work (i must say that i'm also a "fan" of your maples threads since its my "main species" too). If i can ask how do you manage it trimming-wise (how/when/why) if you have some time detailing it? thanks
